Let it go...
This is coach to coach. Let's try an exercise:
1. Review your game and chart all the turnovers your kids made.
2. Then chart all the uncoverted scoring opportunities: missed lay-ups, missed free-throws, missed shots, missed stick-backs, etc.
3. Then chart the difference in rebounding between you and your opponent.
4. Then chart all the questionable adjustments and substitutions you made.
5. Then chart all the "bad" calls made by the officials in your game. If they are really bad, you need to adjust it for "net" bad calls, because I've got to believe you benefitted from a few of these.
Now ask yourself what one or two items above could have really turned around the game. Be honest!
Everyone makes mistakes. The descriptions in this thread bear out that just about everyone made mistakes in judgement - a real team effort. Learn from it, let it go, and move on.
