He should have thrown a clip board at their head during gameplay, it would have cost the same and really delivered the message

Not much class there from a classy and reputable coach. Pat Riley once tried that while coaching the Knicks and C. Oakley and A. Mason were fouled out for murdering Bulls players in the paint. Coach Carlisle players got swallowed by the NY big market MSG and forgot to shoot free throws (5 misses in 5 tries) at crucial phases of the game, they could not get a timely rebound either, and TJ although not efficient like he was in game1 was benched...Coach Carlisle exaggerated things to force us to look elsewhere why they lost

A small price to pay considering it netted him the win. Next time don't capichilate and give him wins
