How do we as official hold strong if that is allowed.

I hear you. Coaches are always looking for an advantages, exploiting matchups, scouting teams, etc to help their team win. If they are given this huge lever that they can flip which will both help their team win even if it means trying to influence the officials and their future, why wouldn't they? On the other hand, we've got enough basketball around here that I don't want to work for that coach again anyways.
