What do you think JAR?

The rule says leaving the court for an unauthorized reason to indicate resentment or disgust. Which is the more important part, the leaving or the indication of resentment/disgust? By the letter, I think you could make the call, but, by the letter you can call a T every time a coach steps outside the box and not many of these get called.
I'd have to see it. It would take quite a display.
The reason I answered was because I had recently seen the situation on the study guide and thought perhaps the OP was preparing for a test.
