Assessing a T with No Head Coach Present
In a situation where there is no Head Coach present to assess a technical, what is the procedure? For instance, a couple of situations that have come up for discussion:
1. Scorekeeper notifies officials at halftime that player from Team A is not in the book, but played the last 2 seconds of the half. Team B is still on the court, Team A has headed to the locker room.
2. Coach of Team A takes team to locker room while administering FT's that occurred to end the half. Team B is shooting free throws.
3. Player uses profanity going to the locker room towards officials, coaching staff is already in locker room.
We discussed that most of these can be administered at the start of the 2nd half, but one of the challenges that came up is that if the technical free throws could have been shot before the half time break, the possession arrow would stay as-is. However, if you end up shooting these in the second half, what is the impact on the possession arrow vs. giving the possession to team that shot the technical fouls. Thoughts on these scenarios?
