After all, players have slumps even when they are happy. Plus, if a player is unhappy because of his own performance, maybe that shouldn't make his performance worse.

I assume that if a player is angry, I am going to have trouble with him eventually, one way or another. I assume if a player is unhappy, he might be performing worse because of it, but the more important dimension is that he might go from being unhappy to angry, so that's something I'd like to avoid.
