He seems to understand, that as it is his job, it is not their job.

no wonder Almeida doesnt play with any fire. when he does, he gets hosed with calls when guys go bouncing off him for no particular reason.

I think the reason he doesn't play with any fire is that he has zero conditioning

Sucking air with 4 minutes left in the 1st half is one thing in your first year...once you've had some time to work on your cardio for a couple of years it shouldn't be an issue. Insert fat joke here, I guess.

Fat, is an understatement. Walrus is really the only adjective that will do him justice.

Miles is giving the team off today. Says they are tired. Signs of a short handed roster IMO. Indicated you can only scream at them so much to motivate them as if you always do it, then it loses it's effectiveness. I like Coach Miles. I think he gets it.

He did something similar at CSU too. I recall reading a story when he was first hired @ NU that he gave the team a day off and followed it up with a "fun day" but I can't remember exactly what it was that they did, but it wasn't basketball-related. Arcade? Laser Tag? Whatever it was, he said it seemed to help the staff and players afterwards.

I know they played volleyball one time. I think those kids absolutely loved him for that.
