Now, once the game went into the second half, all of you that are against the winning coach, how would you have handled it? Do you put in your three bench players and tell them to just stand there and hold the ball at halfcourt? Since there is no shot clock, technically, he can just have his players stand there and just hold the ball for the whole quarter. Is that what you would have had your players do?

If I was the coach.. I would have tried to get a mercy rule to end that game after half.
I would make my kids run suicides in the morning til the fainted if they took a 3 pointer or an easy layup in the 2nd half. I'd make them complete 20 successful bounce passes before they would be allowed to shoot.
This isnt the pro's or college. Its about teenage girls playing against a group of teenage girls with disabilities. Its about being a good person & thinking about others feelings.
I think all the responsibility lies on the coach. ESPECIALLY after he wrote a letter to the paper saying he wasnt sorry for anything (after the school had issued an apology). Good riddence.
