JJ Redick's coaching struggles aren't about X's and O's - it's about emotional control. Coach Nick nailed it: "He holds on too tight."
We've seen this pattern before. Remember that playoff meltdown screaming at TJ McConnell for 10 minutes? The preseason explosion at his own staff?
You can't coach LeBron and Luka like they're rookies. These superstars need a steady hand, not a volcanic sideline presence.
Redick's basketball IQ is elite, but coaching requires emotional intelligence too. The Lakers' season might depend on whether JJ can learn to let go and trust his players.
The talent is there. The question is: can the coach get out of his own way?
