There are times that coaches know that they deserve a T and if it is not given to them you may lose more by not giving them the T than you could by giving the T. Coaches should know when to expect a T.

This is a rule of thumb, but keep in mind it's not always applicable.
Sometimes you just have to take care of unsporting behavior. There are times a good T won't make the game better, and there are times when the game will get better in spite of not giving a T that should have been given.
Just think of it as a normal call. Most of the time, it will make the game better; but don't think twice about your T just because the game continued to go into the tank.
