Woodee,forget about the quote at the top of your post,That was only used to illustrate that a coach gets "seat-belted" if he/she gets a direct or indirect technical foul.
I think what you are looking for is Rule 10-3-5,which states that a player gets a technical foul for grasping the rim during the warm-up.The penalty section for 10-3-5 also states that an indirect technical foul is also charged to the head coach if the grasping was done during the pre-game or intermission.
