I also don't think you can't use positive motivation on an entitled person, because they see themselves as deserving of any positive relief or praise you give them.

Would be interesting to know just what positive forms of motivation have been thus far utilized in an attempt to change the mindset of the player. I do know that all players are not motivated the same way and you cannot always use a collective approach when attempting to do so. Some players have to be treated a little different sometimes in order to get the maximum out of them. It' the coaches responsibility to know how to accomplish that. To continue to methodically infuriate an already infuriated player is not the best method of getting the player to play to his maximum potential. There are better methods IMO that if utilized could bring about a better, or more positive outcome.
