I have always felt that coaches and players should adjust to what is being called that night by the refs. They should push the limit of aggressiveness until they know what amount of contact will be tolerated by the refs calling that game. The only way to do that is to get a foul or two, observing closely what is being called. To continue being aggressive when the refs are calling a tight game is idiotic. It will eventually create a shortage of players on your team that are available for the game.

Aggressiveness can be a good thing or a bad thing. It can be a strategy as pointed out by FrankHtown. But to foul, just be have the appearance of playing agressively is poor coaching.

My two cents.
