I say don't adjust to something you don't feel comfortable with. I adjusted my game one time this season to fit my partner's play-calling and it turned into a wretched game, IMO.

There's a difference between letting skilled players play through marginal fouls in a high-level all-star game or off-season tournament as opposed to watching 12 & 13 year-old boys and girls turn a basketball game into a modern day version of "smear the queer".

The success of the "let 'em play" philosophy usually has a direct correlation to the skill level of the players. The better the players, the easier it is to "let 'em play".
