As someone who faced this situation thousands and thousands of times, I can't begin to tell you how ignorant this is and for how many reasons this is ignorant. We can all see it from the outside, but imagine you are a journalist (not one of these Twitter jokers or a prick trying to wind him up, but just a normal journalist) with a deadline and a story that you are (more or less) not allowed to file without quotes from the coach. He's standing there being a c*** when just an iota of civility would get him out of there in a minute tops.
Atoadaso. A c*** of the highest order. Not entertaining, not cute - just a c***.
Really wish these beats asked better questions and had the nuts to just push back at him a bit. He's gonna be a dick no matter what, but by now there's a pretty established formula for the types of questions he will answer and the ones that'll just piss him off more. If you reeeeeeaaaaaally want quotes I think "So how does this compare to your last game against the Kraken" isn't gonna get you anything interesting even with a normal well-adjusted coach. But I don't blame the beats for mailing it in, either, no reason not to.
