I've had (knock wood) a good year with coach's. It is amazing their view's from the bench. Balls not dropping, players not responding, turnovers flaring ... in short the great game of basketball.
There are two factors on the floor they try to gain influence on 1) the opponent and 20 the referee's and their calls. Much of it is venting, a lot is frustration, frequently it is theatrics, commonly it is strategy.
It's part of the game.
Coach's are expected to win with their team. Referee's are expected to be rules enforcers. You kno wthe addage about half empty - half full. Some coach's blame referee's for everything, others are not programmed for blame shifting.
