I was someone who was critical of GG when I heard he did this. I thought it was dumb and meant he didn't have a handle on the room. I've have no problem admitting I am probably wrong about what I thought, as I have literally no idea what goes on in the dressing room.
Quote:
A by-product of that style is that it allows the players to take a more active role among themselves when the game ends.
"After tough ones it's on us to hold each other accountable as players," said Giordano. "After wins, we sort of get the music going and have a little bit of fun passing out the hat.
"Most of the time you know how the game goes as players and what needs to be addressed. I like it. We take care of it and move on to the next one."

What I do question though is if that accountability Gio preaches does in fact make it's way around the room. Some stretches the leadership seems non-existent. Other stretches it seems like it plays a big role in how the team plays. Again I have no idea one way or another. But if GG does in fact not address the room after games and leaves it to the leadership group to hold each other accountable, I just hope that in fact does happen.
