Message: [QUOTE="MikeSU02, post: 3952452, member: 60"] Well, there is very much a real bias in short-term risk mitigation and playing not to lose vs longer term success/playing to win and being agressive. I don't think that Dino would ever make a choice that he doesn't feel like gives him the best chance of winning... but I think what you can caveat that with is that it may give him the best chance of winning in the extreme near term (that game). I believe there is an argument that coaches (and you see this with GMs in pro sports) that very much win the three feet in front of their face but sink a strategy that will win you longer term. I think Dino played not to lose once we got up in Ohio. I think there would have been real value in getting GS more snaps. But, I think Dino's not worrying about game 7 on the year, he's worrying about game 1 and game 1 only because he knows he has no more leeway. Just my 0.02. [/QUOTE]
