The way he shared it publicly is my main issue.
If that's how he coaches her and what she responds to, doesn't bother me as long as he (or anyone else) isn't crossing any lines - some players just respond to tough love/criticism. No problem with it. But it's the way he went about publicly discussing it that I don't like at all and makes it more of a mind game than necessary. He certainly hasn't changed.

Let's say for a minute this is a legitimate way to coach/motivate somebody.
