I like the idea that coaching strategies, techniques, or motivational approaches can deliver an undefeated home record and excellent metrics while also somehow corrupting and preventing a team from winning road games.
It's particularly tricky in our case when such coaching failures are only occurring in the 2nd half of road games. And in fairness the minutes, personnel, positions, schemes - they've been pretty consistent in the 2nd half of road and home games, so the issue has to be a lack of creatively altering our approach in the 2nd half of road games now that we know we won't perform well given the same approach that has been 100% successful at home.
I like the idea because it would mean that all we have to do is make some minor change at the coaching level, and it's completely unrelated to our players or their performance. That sounds great. Sign me up for that fantasy world.
Or maybe sometimes you put together a solid tournament-level team, have a great plan and preparation, put everyone in a position to succeed - and the team simply doesn't perform. And there is no magic answer, no zone to switch to, no trick play on offense and no perfect speech to illicit extreme motivation.
