Do other fanbases go as crazy about coaches on the court as ours? Genuinely curious. Through the years I've noticed it enrages people both on here and in the Dome.
I find it hard to believe that 90% of fans know this but the players don’t.I don’t believe the players know they can go at him and draw a technical
What makes it even worse for me is he is wearing a white shirt. Good players see the entire court using their peripheral vision and could easily mistake Keats for a team mate.This disrespects the game!
Bilas (rightfully) said yesterday that only players belong on the court - not fans.
What about coaches!?
If the league wanted to stop it they can.Well - our coach is virtually never on the floor, so in a comparison vs that-
Our opponents are always going to be worse.
Plus - we had a run of many years where guys like Rick the Quick & Buzz Williams were constantly the 6th defender on the court, and now Keatts is that guy.
It’s easy to fix.
Refs simply enforce the rule as written, and should T those coaches up the very first time they wander onto the court, especially during live ball action.
Why drive? Just throw the ball at his bits. Kill 2 birds with one stone.Our players should drive right into him
Until this routinely gets called, no warning, just call the technical. Tell coaches Before the game if you have more than one foot out of the box you're getting a T.Why should he get a warning? It’s already a rule. It’s a technical. There is no gray area. He’s either on the court and out of the coaches box or he’s not. The whole problem is that they’ve made it a gray area and up to the discretion of the referees. Imagine giving a player a warning on their first traveling violation or their first reach in hack.
Keats has nothing on Percy Bysse Shelley. Urania weeps for him.Keatts was deliberately coming feet onto the court when NC ST would try to press to take away extra court space. I don’t believe the players know they can go at him and draw a technical and instead try to stay away from him, but is precious space that he is purposely trying to influence. It’s pathetic and shady and he was waved to move once. How he continued to get away with it, I just don’t understand.

coach on the court. ugh.
Willard pointing his finger is hilarious.
A Willard hasn't been that out of place since a group of them cost Morty Seinfeld his condo board election.
Worst tip calculator ever.A Willard hasn't been that out of place since a group of them cost Morty Seinfeld his condo board election.
I think Buzz had a pretty good handle on it too. Bonus points for the sweat soaked clothingJaime Dixon mastered it without penalty.
