My question about the NBA player is this is he a coach, supporter, or just a dad. if he isn't a coach he shouldn't be on the bench, not that youu need to Whack anyone, but you might want to bring that up with the administration, that could be unauthorized personell on the bench and he should be there at the beginning of the game.
I hope he wouldn't give coach the stop sign. Studies and pure trial and error shows that the stop sign does not act as a deterrent but rather as an instigator. Coaches do not respond well to this. Non-verbal is something like 73% of communication and this is a very ineffective non-verbal tool. Not jumping on you in particular but so many believe this to be an appropriate signal when in fact it does not aid in conflict resolution but instead instigates the conflict.
