How tight is the seat belt?

"we should afford them some respect until they prove they don't deserve it."

As an aside, I once, long ago, had a mentor say something similar, but significantly different. Something like, "I respect assistant coaches tremendously, until they prove they exist."

Yeah - that's beyond my line... but it was funny.

Should not have read that while taking a sip of water.

Good one.

On topic: I'll answer any coaches (or player's, or even any bench personnel's) question, as long as it's asked a) at an appropriate time and b) politely and respectfully.

During an extended dead ball I had assistant coach tell me last night that I needed to tell my partner about something the AC supposedly witnessed. I told him "i'm not going tell my partner what you saw". He then says "Well, what do want me to do, yell across the court at him". I said, "no, I want you to not say to anything at all to us".
