Yes, I have. Team A up by 35 with 6+ minutes to go in 4Qtr. Team B is exhuasted and not attempting to defend (or not very good at defending). Team A begins a dribble stall drill to chew up the clock but in doing so this action turns into an "And 1 Mix Tape" display of showboating and embarassement as Team B simply stands around as if to have given up in humiliation.

I warn Coach A that his players are getting close to being unsporting he shrugs and smiles but no comment to his players. 10 seconds later I whack his star guard for taunting, he's gone. Coach A chirps to complain using profanity, I whack him he's gone.

Team A assistant coach gets the message loud and clear and proceeds to put an end to the humiliation, subs enter the game. Team B feels motivated to play, the remainder of the game goes on without a single stoppage coincidentally and we are out of there in 5 minutes.
