Look At Me When I'm Talking To You!

But with the White team on defense, there is a miscommunication as the Blues work the ball around the defense.  McCants and Felton disagree on who is responsible for guarding the ball handler, with each believing the other has the duty.

Williams blows his whistle.

"I don't like the arguing," he says, intensity slowly rising.  "Just say, 'I've got the ball.'  Gosh dang it, we have to play in forty-eight hours!"

It is then that McCants makes a critical mistake- he cuts his eyes away from his head coach and looks at the floor.

"Look at me when I'm talking to you!" Williams booms.  "If we're gonna win, we're gonna do it together.  We've got a game in forty-eight hours.  I'm sick of you arguin' like frickin' third-graders.  Your way got your ass kicked.  Every single time.  Thirty-six frickin' losses.  Do it my way.  If you don't like it, get your ass out because I'm gonna frickin' win, with you or without you."
