I understand that. But it seems to me that the result of that intention is that players must stay in the bench area, which they didn't do in this sitch.

Not to mention the fact, that the coach is not allowed to leave the coaching box -- or even stand up in some states --during play.

If you're concerned about fights starting, then you also should consider that the team may be walking through the other team's bench area to get to the basket where their teammate is shooting.

Just seems to me to be worth a quick word with the coach after halftime. If you disagree, I can live with that.
