Yes, the rest of the game went real well. A person came from the stands and took over. First thing he did was group his players and told them to forget about the technicals and play on. He was very positive with the team and drawing plays on a white board, etc. As a matter of fact, the other team's coach was pretty quiet after this too.
The comment from the stands about having to warn the coach prior to calling the T made me smile inside a bit, as I immediately thought of this forum when he said it. However, I was quickly jolted back to the game when the coach earned his second T.
I have to admit, this forum has made a great difference in my officiating.
By the way, the opposing team missed all six free throws for the T(yes, different rules for this tourney), and didn't score after receiving the ball out at the division line.
