The tone or behavior might warrant a "knock it off," but the substance here does not, IMO. My usual response to "I wasn't talking to you," is "Coach, I know who you were talking to." That response is neither disputatious nor does it invite a reply.

+1. If that is all I hear during a timeout and I don't know the context at all, I'm not even going to address it. Now if he is pointing at me or staring at me while he's saying it and trying to act like he's talking to his team but it's obvious he is talking to me, that's a different story.
