Wow

IMHO it's absolutely HORRENDOUS judgment and unjustifiable to call a technical foul in the situation as described in the original post.

It's calls like that that give officials a bad name and fuels the misguided perception some have that officials are out of touch and take away from the game.

I can see a T in the case someone else described where a guy jacks a shot that goes under the bleachers or something and refuses to go get it after repeated request. But in the situation described, any official who would issue a T or even begin to justify a T, is not someone I would want to work with and someone who truly DOES NOT GET IT.
