Probably sounds to the coach like you're still trying to coach, and it's understandable he wouldn't appreciate it. If a ref had told you that in your coaching days, would you? A kid CAN box out even if he's 5-3, and little guys quicker to the ball CAN outrebound bigger guys.
"He was trying to leave the lane and was impeded, so I held off" is a plausible explanation that's a lot easier to hear.
