Technical Foul--Overtime
After our game last night, my partner tells me a story about a game he was at last week. He said he wasn't working the game, just watching.
Team B hits a shot at the buzzer to tie the game at the end of regulation. Team A's coach doesn't agree with the officials' decision to count the basket, and eventually earns a technical foul.
Here's where my question lies. He told me the officials administered the penalty to begin overtime, instead of the jump ball.
Was this the correct way to handle it? Or should they have put Team B on the line with two chances to end the game?
The only relevant case play I could find deals with a tech at halftime, not at the end of the game. It said the third quarter would begin with the administration of the technical foul penalty (10.4.1 B)
Thoughts?
