However I'm not convinced that would have helped the team. Seems like had that happened the team would have had a similar performance regardless, and then the narrative would be that our management just got suckered into the distraction.
If a player can't "get up" for a playoff game, I don't think it's the coach's fault.

That's a bizarre take. It may be stupid that lots of star players need a coach to get them up and motivate them properly, even for playoffs. But clearly it's a thing, or else there wouldn't be elite coaches known for being able to do just that.
You seem very dismissive of a coaches' impact on a game, specifically playoffs (speaking of other posts as well). I guess I respectfully believe the opposite.
