2) Since you only charged him with a techncial foul for unsportsmanlike conduct, I would like to know what your partner was doing while Coach V was throwing more words at you on his way back to his team's bench. If Coach V was still running his mouth at you, then your partner should have been the "good cop" so to speak and explain to Coach V that if he doesn't cool down he is going to get his second technical foul from him and not you.

I couldn't even finish reading this thread before I replied. The coach should have been tossed even if there was .1 on the clock.
Now, doesn't caps mean yelling when you type?
IF YOUR PARTNER CALLS A T ON A COACH DO NOT GO TO THAT COACH AND CONSOLE HIM. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO EXPLAIN WHY HE GOT A T, YOU DIDN'T GIVE IT TO HIM ANYWAY!
This happened to me last night. My partner gave a T to a coach and the coach wanted to talk to me. I was administering the free throws and he was like "ref come here." You know what I told him from the endline? "Coach, sit down." At that point that was all the communication I should have had with him. I wish my partner would go over to stroke, console, placate (if that is how you spell it) or do anything to appease a coach after he has received a T. If you are doing a 3-person game the best thing to do as the trail is step about 10 feet onto the court and watch the players with your back to the coach. Think of what message it sends to everyone and especially your partner for you to go over there to have a up close with the coach in that situation. NO NO NO!!!
Holy signatures batman, I didn't even see who posted the above until I was done with my post!!!!!!!!!
