V1 gets to the bench, picks up a chair and slams it down on the floor. He is immediately hit with his second technical by R2 (who signals that he has been ejected). The assistant coach escorts the player to the lockerroom and then returns to the bench alone. H1 then makes four out of five free throws to extend the lead from four to nine points. After the free throws, the home coach asks R1 to come over and the discuss something at length (very calmly). The home team ends up pulling away for about a 14 point win. As the coaches shake hands I hear the losing coach say, "Merry Christmas. The referee's gave you that one."
Before I left I heard the coach talking so someone in the lobby.
Coach: Can you believe that? He never said a word to the referees. They were baiting him. They completely took us out of the game.
Other person: Have you ever seen him act like that before?
Coach: Yeah, all the time. He is an emotional player. I don't know how to change that. I am going to suspend him for one game.
Any thoughts about all this?

I have no problem about the "T's".
I don't understand...'The assistant coach escorts the player to the lockerroom and then returns to the bench alone'. Why is the player left in the locker room?
Also....'H1 then makes four out of five free throws to extend the lead from four to nine points.' Is this the 'new math' that is being taught???
