If an A team player has the chance to play the ball, then that player is right there in the picture. Coach B has no excuse to touch the ball, no matter whether it's over the court or not. If the ball is over the playing court, this can't be just a reaction -- the coach has got to know he's interfering. If it's over the OOB area, and the coach sort of puts up his hands and the ball falls into the hands, well, that's one thing. But if there's a player that has a chance to get the ball, or if the coach reaches out to touch it, it's interference, isn't it?
