As a coach, I get on the PA microphone and clear my throat right before the jumpball to notify the officials that the game is about to start and that I will be yelling at them for all the fabricated fouls and travels they call on my team and all obvious fouls and travels they do not call against the other team. It's not in the book, I just do it as a courtesy to the officials to notify them that I am ready to go.
