In 95% of cases I am opposed to responding to comments, however, there are those cases where a quick well phrased reference to a rule or exactly what you saw can defuse a situation. A quick signal of a juggled ball so as to tell the coach you saw it but there was no possession - just the same as the signal for not closely guarded, can let a coach know you are on top of it and get them of you back. I think the comment of "coach she lost it " is fine, I do not think that " you can not travel without the ball" was needed, too open ended.

The Whack was perfect and hopefully given with the same emphasis as a travel. Like others have said the coach was testing you. You passed. I doubt you will have an incident with him again. Unless he wants it or something goes heywire.
