If they miss one rotation or do any small thing wrong Woody gets on them in front of everybody like he knows what hes talking about. Yet Tyson, Felton, Melo, JR, Kenyon, and Amare make numerous hilariously dumb plays a game to which Woody turns the other cheek.
Dantoni used to do the same thing, and I cant stand that junk. Biased accountability. It shows how little balls Woodson has. The young guys get chirped at and put on a one inch leash while our "vets" get to take a sh*t and smear it all over the floor every night, but it's cool because "they know what they're doing." Ha.
Tyson and Felton are awesome to watch. They really are. Seeing them b*tch about everything and deflect afterwards is top notch. They honestly think they're good players and that tickles my sausage. They should be proud.
I thought I was going crazy with the amount of times ive seen Tyson just let some toad waltz into the lane and lay it up without him even raising his hand. This is what the man gets paid 14 mill a year for and I cant remember the last time I really watched a game and thought Tyson made a 14 million dollar impact.
Trade him. Get whatever we can get. Aldrich can do better, or he can't do much worse.
Well, at least your pickle gets tickled.
It goes back to the way this franchise handles players. Playing time defers to salary structure much of the time. I've never been really sure what part of Dolan's agenda has been executed by Woodson, but it is clear Woodson already had a bias against younger players.
So it works out just the way you are saying where the guys who have booked their big contract know they get preferential treatment from the coach which is exactly not the message you want to send to the rest of the players. I'm not saying that doesn't exist to some degree on all clubs, but here it is definitely the default logic. It is garbage psychology and an anti-winning ethos, not the way to build a winning culture.
