During this week's episode, Sport Psychologist Dr. Lee Picariello discusses the overtime mentality. Discussion will also be based off of the following:
- What happens to the mind in overtime? (Double-triple-overtime)?
- Can athletes prepare for overtime challenges?
- How does overtime affect the fans?
- Why can teams score easily with 2 mins left, but have trouble scoring for the whole game
- Does overtime lead to clutchness or expose a player?
- In overtime, there's no pacing whereas for the entirety of the game you pace - is this a reason as to why teams score with 2 mins left easily?
- Why do athletes choke under pressure and some live up to the hype
