"Come on White"....Blow my whistle. "Come on white, we are going to play without you". He continues talking with team. We are now at least 40 seconds beyond horn. I look to my partner and tell him to put it in play.
B team inbounds and makes an easy layup. Coach A throws his clipboard on floor. Coach B wants a T. I didn't. Next dead ball, Coach A is ragging on my partner. I went over and told him we called him out several times and he ignored it. It almost cost him the game.
Later, I was wondering if I should have given a T instead of placing the ball in play. I've seen it written on this forum, but this thread says to put it in play. Can you give me rule #.
Thanks,

There are two different rules that apply at two different times. Both can have a T as a result.
A team shall not: ... Allow the game to develop into an actionless contest, this includes the following and similar acts:
10-1-5(a) When the clock is not running consuming a full minute through not being ready when it is time to start either half.
10-1-5(b)...Delay the game by preventing the ball from being made promptly live or from being put in play. See 7-5-1 and 8-1-1 for the resumption-of-play procedure to use after a time-out or the intermission between quarters. The procedure is used prior to charging a technical foul in these specific situations.
The one minute followed by the T is appropriate at the beginning of a half. The resumption-of-play procedure (potentially followed by a technical foul for continuted delay) is appropriate after a time out or between 1st and 2nd or 3rd and 4th quarters.
