Let me put my thoughts this way; as it played out, I have no problem with either T.
My comments here are strictly regarding the dreaded stop sign. There has been considerable debate on here whether the stop sign works or makes things worse. I've used it successfully on players, and I've used it unsuccessfully on coaches (followed almost immediately by a T).

Those who use it successfully have, almost unanimously, stated that it's an understood and accepted (even prescribed) mechanic in their areas; meaning the coaches are used to it as well and understand what it means. That makes sense to me (although I hate the crap about being able to see the whole thing on tape.) Summer ball, though, is not the time to use a signal that means one thing to regular season basketball coaches and something completely different to parents of teenagers. JMO, of course.
