Of course, I have also heard the position taken that an over-demonstrative buh-bye display can inflame a situation. There's some merit to that point too imo. My own view is that if you have to unload someone, do it quickly, decisively...and unemotionally. And report it to the bench the same way.

Ahem, excuse me for this but I would like to say that FIBA uses two fists in the air, one with each hand for an ejection. Kinda like a big cheer.
