Coach, I'd like your opinion on this question. It's an honest question (honest ), and I'd just like to hear a coach's perspective.

In the scenario you outline, which would you really rather have after your player gets slapped? Would you rather have an easy lay-up, or the third foul on your opponent that gets you a 1-and-1?

Now change it slightly so that it's not the "star player" on either end of the floor. In that case, which one of the above choices would you rather have? 3rd foul on a scrub and a 1-and-1; or the easy lay-up?

Again, honest question. What are your thoughts? I'd be interested in other coaches' comments too.
