I want to say that ain’t right.
However in basketball, it’s hard to intentionally take it easy on an opponent you’re so much better than over the course of a game.

You could, ya know, stop throwing the orange thing toward the elevated hole with a net.

How does a score get that bad if you pull off the press and do a running a clock? Serious question, because it seems like you'd have to really try to beat somebody that bad. I'm all for beating somebody into submission, but there is a line in there somewhere and after the score was about 40-1 it probably started getting crossed.
Did one of those two things not happen (press wasn't pulled, or the clock wasn't ran)? When I was in high school our girls were really good (won 2 state championships in 3 years) and they consistently beat teams really, really bad, but they'd also pull the press and clock would be running after the first half.

Why? The girls have practiced hard and simply want to play a game of basketball. You want them to go out there and dribble the ball around and then toss it to the other team? What exactly should happen in that situation?

It's high school basketball, not professional. Stop being a dickhead and embarrassing a vastly inferior opponent who also just wants to play the game of basketball.

Tell them to stay inside the 3 point line on defense.
Tell them they have to make at least 10 passes on offense and you can only score on left handed layups. look for other creative restrictions to give them.
Coaches who aren't pieces of shite have been doing creative things like that for years.

I think I would be more pissed if my opponent started playing opposite handed than if they just beat the hell out of me.

I was on a terrible JV high school team. We were a small private school but played the local public schools. We lost 100-25 once. It didn’t really bother me at the time. We still had fun for the most part. I think it would have upset us more if the other teams stopped trying.

You can just: Not shoot. Dribble around. Pass. Play Keep Away. Run 2-3 minutes off the clock and then shoot if you still want to.
It's been done before. Hell I've seen it as a strategy against really explosive teams to slow down their offense. Saw a team that eventually lost in the 5A state championship beat a very mediocre team in their district by a final of 24-21 due to said mediocre team burning clock and only shooting when they had an open look under the goal.
It's possible.

story said the victors coasted on offense after Q1. But the defense did not.
Defense just didn't relent. I can't imagine a coach not telling his players to ease up unless there was some bad blood from a past game. Who knows? As bad as a beating as it is, if the other team is that bad, maybe this lopsided win was unavoidable.
I blame the officials for letting it happen as much as the victors.

They had 50 points in the first qtr so they clearly called off the dogs offensively. I have mixed feelings about ever “relenting” on defense. Maybe don’t press but I’m never telling my players don’t try for 3 quarters

At 50-0 drop into a zone and give them the jump shot.
It's not hard. It's a decision, right or wrong.

I have no problem with this. The team that scored 1 should get better

That's just stupid. Passing up wide open layups because you want to make them pass it around 10 times would be more insulting to the other team than just scoring. Its basically like taunting and toying with them. Kind of like that time Les Miles made the offense take 4 kneel downs inside Ole Miss' 10 yard line with 5 minutes left in the game.
Winning coach should just put in the benchwarmers who otherwise never get playing time. Tell them not to press, stay back on defense, and not to double team or trap. Tell them no fast breaks and instruct your guards to take their time dribbling out most of the shot clock on the perimeter before they make any moves or passes towards the basket. But you don't tell them to stop playing or to do dumb shite like make sure you pass at least 10 times every possession. Ask the opposing coach and referee if they want to do a running clock for the 2nd half.

This MSB board specifically has turned into Reddit. Bunch of Soys in this thread.

I didn't say dribble to the goal and pass up layups.
Pass the ball around the perimeter a few times and actually run your offense before you score. It's not that difficult. I'm not saying taunt them and hold the ball for a full minute. Run your offense and make a bunch of perimeter passes before you go to the goal. Maybe say you have to score on a backdoor cut. It doesn't matter what you do, you're going to embarrass the other team.

Put those same high school girls outside in a pickup game and the losers would keep playing even though losing over and over again. You can let up some with adjustments but its a disservice to the winning girls if they cant play the game they practiced for.
In the end you'd have to be there to make the judgement call that it is. Even then you'd have a split crowd about it.

A game like this shouldn’t be played. Unless this was a district/conference game, you should know better than to schedule this. Coaches know how good the teams are when they make these schedules. It’s bad on both sides. The losing coach puts his team in a no-win situation, the winning coach is essentially wasting the team’s time. Find someone better to play.
