If the 3point try goes in, the ball goes back to white team after the two ft for the T. I bet the coach would think twice next time he decided to scream at an official. But because of the quick T, he's not in position to observe the action of the black jersey defender.

A friendly reminder is to always be patient with T's.
How do you know Coach is not white team coach? It's really close regarding blowing T, when white receives ball, the nearest defender is six feet away and screened the fouler does a bulls rush from ten feet away. I can't blame official who has getting an earful from a coach who wants to be whacked.

We have the luxury of watching it from our arm chair. Could he have waited longer? Maybe, but I'm not going to fault him on this one.
