but I coached for a couple years before, and I came across this situation.
there was about 5 seconds left at the end of the third quarter. when the ball was inbounded the clock didnt start and neither ref noticed. after about 7 seconds of the fans yelling "start the clock" they finally start the clock. and then at about 2 seconds left on the clock (10 seconds after the ball was inbounded) the other team shoots the ball and one of my player gets a rebounding foul. Actually my best player got the foul and it was his fourth. Don't criticize me here I know I should not of had him in the game. But after the refs call the foul I throw a tantrum (Bob Knight style)about not starting the clock- for some odd reason I did not get a technical (If I would of got the first, I am guessing the second one would of come within seconds of the first)
the question I have- if I am reffing and I would come across a situation like this what can I do

The question left in my mind is, what did the refs do in this situation, besides not give a T?
