Coach said " that's the problem, you didn't see the foul"
How can you win? The player going to the basket clearly tried to avoid the contact to get his shot off and did.

"Coach, officiating is all about getting the correct angle. When you're in position to see the whole play, you'll get it right almost 100% of the time. When you're out of position...you're just guessing. Who do you think was in better position to see that play...you @ 60 ft away...or me @ 5ft?"
try that next time....OR...
"Coach did you see that play? (YES)...then you know it was a foul, you really can't complain about it, can you."
"Coach did you see that play? (Not Really)...then you really can't complain about it, can you?"
