SIT.5) 40-sec left in the game Blue is down by 12, I’m running down court – becoming the new L, and the Blue coach says --- “THAT’S UNBELIEVABLE REF!!” so I look and there’s Blue standing up in front of the scorers table. Well I had “tweet” and a pause and signaled “T”… Walked to the table and white coach came over and said – there’s only 40 sec left… I decided to waive it off and keep going… I didn’t want to eject him, but I wanted to send the message… What do you think?

Thanks in advance. Hopefully this game story entertained some of you…

Thanks…

Sounds like you did all things well, Pat, except that Sit 5 could have been handled a bit better.

Sit 1: Correct call.
Sit 2: Good no T.
Sit 3: Good to ignore.
Sit 4: Certainly sounds like a T.
Sit 4.5: "Stop Showing Off"... is that grounds for ejection?
Sit 5: this one could have been handled differently. Do I read it correctly when I believe that the white coach convinced you to not toss the blue coach because there are only 40 seconds left? Too bad for the white coach, blue coach goes.
