The coach does NOT have a say under any circumstances.....he has to accepts the R's choice.
Never worry about what the coach thinks. Worry about what your Assignor/Evaluator thinks. They are God.  |
Believe me, you never have to worry about me worrying what a coach thinks. It is clearly worthwhile to know that a coach will have a preference. This is because knowing that a coach will have a preference will prepare one for a method of dealing with that conversation.
I am not sure why you are stressing that the coach doesn't have a say. Everybody here understands that. And I know that you know that I know that.
If you claim that 2-3 says the R chooses who shoots because of the 7th foul, then he also chooses who shoots because of the 9th and 10th foul. Since these fouls carry different penalties, the effect of R's choice is not zero.
