I'm a little confused. If the substitute for the disqualified player had already reported to the table, then I believe that the team does not get the twenty second "time out", the substitute is simply beckoned onto the court. On the other hand, if the substitute for the disqualified player had not yet reported, then I believe that the coach, even if he has already selected the substitute, has the twenty seconds to make the replacement, whether he is giving instructions, or not. On the other hand (I have three hands), if the twenty second replacement period ends, and the replacement player has not yet reported to the table, then the technical foul is certainly warranted, and in fact encouraged (he's being a jerk), in this situation. A reminder for rookies, the technical foul is charged to the head coach, who now gets to rest his aching feet, and take a seat.
