“Just the last shred of that old-school mentality. Just growing up with my dad, you don’t wear anything on your head during the game. You don’t wear jewelry. You practice how you play.”
What if they half ass wearing a hoodie a la KG?
There is some merrit to “practice how you play” but there is also something to be said about comfort etc. It’s whatever
JB is gone in two years
he’s an awful coach who lucked into Evan Mobley being a KG type defender
if the Cavs draft Suggs or Green, they would have never won more than 40 games and JB would be on his ass
i feel bad for Cade and the Detroit Fans who deserve better
Learning nothing from the Lions. You don’t build a culture with rules restricting players over bullshit.
Yea because this kinda shit has always worked, right?
Finally! 🙄🙄🙄. When we were a mere 15 games into our record-breaking losing streak, I looked at the way they were walking off the court having just taken yet another pounding and I said to the wife, ‘You know, I bet these guys are wearing hoodies at practice!’ Glad we’re playoff-guaranteed again.
Maybe I’m old school, but imo everyone should be wearing practice jerseys during practice
i still can’t believe this guy got another HC job in this league
I like this.
Opposing teams should have “hoodie night” to troll
His pops was a legend. Bernie didn’t play around. So I’m glad to see JB taking things from his dad
If Bernie were my dad, the last thing I’d want to be doing is referencing his coaching as being influential.
As if wearing a hoodie identifies as “bad” or not focusing on your skill set? There are some players, that wearing a hoodie might actually help them to be more locked in. Maybe some “ballerina” music in the background might help in practice , and at all costs avoid rap songs.
You can’t wear a hoodie to play in the real game though.
He’s just being old school and wanting practice to match game conditions.
‘New culture’ is fashion nowadays. Everyone tries to be a Chicago’s Phil Jackson
Not allowing people to do things is a nice way of building culture. For instance in North Korea they are not allowing people to leave the country and the culture builds nicely from there.
