Could be something like Tabasco

The Los Angeles Lakers coach, Del Harris, reunited with Kobe Bryant in the summer of 1996…

When Harris was coaching Kobe’s father, Joe Bryant, a basketball player, he met Kobe, who was then four years old. 'Kobe did the thing well. He had plans to write a book or create an educational program.’

When Kobe entered the Lakers, Harris’s priority was to train Nickey Maxwell Van Exel and Eddie Jones. He was planning to train both players until they could cover the new rookie Shaquille O’Neal.
Bryant did not agree with the plan. He wanted to compete in the game.
I live twice as much as Bryant. The youngest players I coached are Moses Malone and Kobe, but both have gone. : Harris is 82 years old.

Occasionally a coach can crush a player. Also, players are basically dissatisfied with coaches. If you’re going to give that direction, you’ll have to do it: there are always complaints. Still, the reason coaches exist is probably that they are needed.

It’s a bad word, but a coach could be something like Tabasco

If you are an active coach, forgive me.
If you can, you want to live without a coach. I don’t want to be instructed when doing what I want to do.

But coaches are good at training players. I don’t think people who are poor at it are not recognized as coaches. The coach will be close to the athlete, closely observe the athlete, determine their abilities, know their personality, and give effective instructions. Ideally.
Isn’t a coach needed? I don’t think it is unnecessary. Because athletes are often injured, their coaches must encourage them to stay calm to prevent it. Or in case of injury, the coach must take the lead in helping the players. Isn’t that a coach’s role in safety? At the extreme, isn’t it the responsibility of the coach to be responsible for accidents during sports activities?

However, since video cameras have become widespread recently,

players can check their actions and forms by video shooting. You can play it in slow motion or check it as a still image, so you may not need a coach anymore. Players can find their own improvements on their own.

I didn’t expect my teammates, especially Kobe, to die: O’Neal said.

Sports clubs may have coaches in addition to the general manager. The coaches are people who are close to the players and provide various guidance. Is their main job of giving practice instructions? I’ve never seen a coach yelling during a match. Leave the job shouting during the game to the general manager.

'He couldn’t wait for the camp and was tingling to play basketball. He was very positive, beyond basketball ’

That’s it for today’s post. Thank you
