The coach is setting you up for the next game.

Not always. When I have a good game, I know it. If a coach also recognizes a well officiated game, that's great. I just say thank you. But if I was horsesh*t (and I know when I'm horsesh*t,) and the coach says "good game," I may even say "thanks, but I think I could have done better." Fortunately, I have many more good days than bad!
In any case, I'm not letting a coach's comment affect me either way for the next game. I am wise to coaches' efforts to "work" me.
