So if during a timeout A6-A10 sub in for A1-A5. After the second horn the referee is about to put the ball in play to Team A.
(Sit A) A6 standing next to the official tells the official that "You suck!". This is a direct Technical on the player and an indirect on the Coach. He must now sit the rest of the game.
(Sit B) A1 sitting on the bench next to the coach yells across the court at the official telling him "You suck!" A1 is still considered a player so he gets a direct technical and the coach receives nothing even though that player is sitting on the bench right next to the coach.
Is this correct by rule? If so this just doesn't seem right, IMO.

Perhaps the answers to your questions are obvious to everyone but you and me . . . I'm interested!
