​And now we know why a man that's spent a vast majority of his life reining in teenagers has been given the responsibility to oversee the best professional basketball players in the world during international competition.  It's not just because Coach K. is a great coach that gets the most out of his teams, it's because Coach K. knows how to properly balance silliness and success. A bunch of superstars coming off an extremely taxing NBA season to practice for a tournament they are almost definitely going to win? Yeah, safe to say their focus might be a bit off. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that locker room probably resembles a kid's birthday party after they are all hyped up on sugar after finishing their cake. Just a bunch of man children running around without a care in the world trying to relax and have as much fun as possible. Well, someone has to manage that excitement and teach them how to play together, and who better to do it than the guy who has pretty much earned the 'Lifetime Achievement Award' when it comes to relating to immature players in a new, exciting environment. A couple of light hearted fuck you's were to be expected when trying to get some of the most talented athletes in the world to buckle down and take a competition they've basically already won just by showing up seriously.
