New one last night
VISITING team is down by 10 with 15 secs left in game come down and drain a 3 pointer. one of the VISITING players grabs the ball after it goes through the net and just holds it, bear hugs it actually. I am thinking, "what is he doing?" the clock is running and they are still down 7. I hear 'just hold it' from the bench. one of the home team players actually tries to grab the ball....i snapped out of my confusion and blow my whistle and issue a T. The visiting team bench asks me if there should have been a warning first, and i explained that this was an intentional act, an unsporting act and the T was warranted. I gave the T to the player that was holding the ball....my question is, should this have been a TEAM technical rather than a player tech?
