I make sure the table knows it was a two point shot. The Coach hears me telling the table this, and asks, was that a three? I say no coach, her foot was on the line. He then yells across to what I'm assuming was his team's fans. "Was that a three?", as if he didn't believe me.

Would you T the coach for "showing you up"?

For the record, he'd been whining about foul counts and over the back all night. I'd had enough of his BS. I held off on the T, thinking it was borderline at best. Would you hit him with the T in that situation?
Nope.

Good point by grunewar - ignore your ABS meter as justification to call the T. Does the fact that he was "whining all night" mean that you could have dealt with the BS earlier?
