I like the NCAA rule; it takes this kind of coach jackassery out of the equation.

There's no gray in the rule. It's as clear as can be.
Bring the sub in, let the sub shoot, the injured player sits til the clock runs. Don't get involved in this. If the coach OR the player says the player is injured, that's all you need to know.
