While I see your point HawksCoach, there are times when we absolutely know for a fact that one team is far outmatched. I will never say anything to a coach suggesting he back off, but my whistle will. Once we get halfway or so through the second half, I will take the approach that contact which causes a disadvantage is a foul, you're pressing players are contacting the offense and they are losing the ball, hence I have a foul. And another, and another, and so on, until you back them off. In my book, this allows the far weaker team some chance to play a little basketball, keeps them from being totally humiliated and frustrated and I have not found many coaches intolerant of that approach.
