To me the player counting is no different than the coach yelling out 1-2-3 to try to get a 3-second violation. It's getting a quick "knock it off" and after that a technical for being unsporting. It has nothing to do with ego. It has to do with the perception that I'm not counting fast enough and that the player (or coach) is trying to help me. No. Way.
