........ well, at least on the court. But, as a basketball coach, he's not afraid to get into the mug of any of his players including the best and set things straight or let them know what they are not doing. I'm sure Fran does as well but if Izzo isn't happy with the play, he'll pull the guy at the next stoppage.
In listening to him and watching during the game, I can really appreciate the attention to detail that he coaches to. Dailey shooting that well really got under his skin as he said at half he was not that good a shooter. Now we all know Dailey can hit those shots and can be decent, but apparently the numbers Izzo had seen weren't there. He seemed surprised by his game. Good game for Dailey. I also don't think Dailey has a bad shot as Izzo stated. I think it looks pretty fluid to me with a nich arch and backspin on the ball. Anyway, I digress.
But, think of Izzo as you like, he does pay attention to finite detail of the opposing team which is evident how well prepared his teams usually are and the success they've had in the post-season. I like how he just tells it like it is and doesn't sugarcoat anything. I don't see a lot of opposing coaches commenting on how bad a shot an opposing player has or not the best percentage. I don't think he knows any better. I'm fine with that.
