I don't understand why it's "sad." This is a common tactic, from what I've observed. A lot of times a technical foul will get your players all riled up and ready to go back in there and scrap harder. I imagine it's tough as an official to try and judge whether that's the coach's intent or not and how that factors into your decision to call the T.
