i think if the coach can't talk to his players his team is being penalized twice for one foul! If he loses his best player on defense he should be able to talk to his players and see what the plans are for changing defense during that 30 seconds...if not he will have to replace his player then call a timeout to talk it over which shouldn't have to happen and will slow the game down even more!!! Was a good thought, but don't think they should make the players get away from the coach....30 seconds is not a long talk with his players....After you tell the coach that is his players 5th and tell the table to start the clock, while you are getting the disqualified player off the floor, the coaches 30 seconds are about up anyways...can't get any faster than that!!!!
