There's a rule about the officials making judgements on situations not covered in the rulebook. An official can always bail him/herself out with that one.
In my original situation though, the coach was not doing it to purposely trick anyone, becuase he was calling play after play that way. And he mainly did it in the first half when his team was shooting at the other basket.
I would like to see a rule in the book about this (but who am I). What about a fan blowing a whistle with 1 second on the clock and everyone stops? You can T the team who the fan is supporting, but what if the fan shows to partiality?
