There are some losing dynamics when you have a focal point player.
Does that focal point player also contribute to good defense?
Are they the first one back down the court on defense? Or are they the first person whining that they need a new coach?
With a focal player you have all the other players trying to get them the ball. Does that mentality also warrant them to be the first players back down the court on defense.
Okay so you have a focal point player that can do both? But can they do it for the entire game? And what happens on the score board when they need to be taken out for wind?
Let's say we are talking about paid players. How is that focal point player viewed when you pay more for them in salary in relation to the coach? Do you see where I am going? What does the coach really represent on a focal point player team? You need a coach that can manage all the players on the team with regard to your expectations from them. But then ask yourself what expectations can you have of the other 4 players? So indeed, there might be a crux. What expectations can you establish and quantify with regard to the other four players on the court when you have a focal point player?
Now, how do you hire a coach? Do you hire a fresh coach? How could you evaluate what they would be in this arena? Or do you hold some notion that maturity might prevail? But how do you know a seasoned coach will not be stale and noninnovative at overcoming and winning?
Do you spend your out of pocket money chasing some notion of ideation that may or may not hold true? Do you base your decision on some type of patterned emotional path you think it fits? How will it be done? Interesting.
And then immediately you wonder if the full story with regard to a coaches firing has been told?
All very generic terminology here.
