I honestly thought that I was going to hear a racial comment by the end of his rant. Ended up shooting 6 foul shots. Two for the (FIBA) unsportsmanlike foul that I called, and 4 for the Ts.

Juggs,
How did you end up ejecting the assistant without getting the head coach first?
In FIBA rules you cannot by rule assess a T to an assistant. the head coach (by your description) should of be assessed 2 Bench T's still leaving him 1 more Bench or Direct before the HC is ejected. Then the AC is fair game becasue he then becomes the HC.
Just wondering...
