In a gym tonight with the strangest set-up. Coaches boxes both textbook locations. Although there were so many different colored lines on the floor, I'm not sure how anyone would have known, without careful attention. But, okay, textbook measurements, and marked. But the table was way off center to the point that the visiting coach was actually sitting in front of the table itself. It seemed to me this gave him an enormous advantage, since he could keep talking to subs while they were waiting to come in, and he could keep up a running patter with his book person. The other coach had none of these advantages. I figured, oh, well, they could change this if they wanted to, and then at least they were sportsmanlike enough to give the advantages to the visitors.

But I had to wonder if it was legal. Just skimming through quickly, I can't find anything against it, but perhaps I'm missing something. Dexter, can you punch in on this one?
