1. He was the assistant coach, who shouldn't be making any comments about the officiating.

2. I already had a discussion with the head coach about the expected behaviour of the assistant coach when he was griping about calls earlier in the game.

3. That comment was taking a stab at my integrity as an official. It was loud enough for the coaches of the other team to hear, and it was loud enough that the fans may have heard it.

I believe the coach recieved appropriate warning, and given the same situation I'd do it again.
Geeze, the 1 thing I don't see here is "it made the game better".

Too bad.
There was 1 minute left in the game, the ***'t coach didn't say another word, I left before he could approach me afterward. I don't think that there was enough time left to determine if it made the game better. I assume that if it happened earlier in the game it would've made the game better.
