That's an interesting take. And you're right... diametrically opposed views.
Nobody knows what happened or what was said to fire up Haith. I would GUESS Anderson said something to one of Haith's players - probably Pressey - and Haith took exception.
We saw this last year against Iowa State, too. Fred Hoiberg put his hands on a Missouri player (who, in Hoiberg's defense, was lurking around the ISU huddle), and Haith went through the roof. He's protective of his guys - perhaps to a fault.
That take on Haith is flawed, but that's fine.
