Legal, but Disadvantaged Coach Puts Up a Fuss

Scorekeeper erroneously records five fouls on star visiting guard instead of four.

Not really getting involved, just right there. The home coach, meanwhile, was putting up a huge fuss that we allowed the opposing coach to be right there at the table while he had to stay in his box way down there pret'neer in a different zip code.
Legal, but protested.
Turned out okay, and, to me anyway, it's just desserts for a coach whose school gets those stupid bleachers that require the scorer's table not to be located at midcourt.
