I HATE BLOWOUTS!!! They present an opportunity for so many bad things to happen, for all involved.
I can only hope that you called it as tight as possible on Z. IMHO, you should have taken the first genuine opportunity to whack any of them with a T if they were behaving that badly. I firmly believe that a superior team must know how to establish a blow out margin by playing solid ball (I do not ever want to be in a close game with an inferior opponent), but then maintain a comfortable margin with dignity. You may increase the margin without even trying (some games are too much of a mismatch to help it), but you must always be above reproach for your behavior on the court when you are on top in a blowout. I will pull kids right out if they act like these kids did.
Sadly, the kids on Z are not learning some useful life lessons, and their coach is failing to teach them.
