I think there are a lot of officials in this thread that seem to be EAGER to eject a coach instead of run the game. I'm not advocating listening to constant barbs from an assistant coach. But if you're so sensitive that you get offended by a coach (or player for that matter) asking you to clean the rubber, you need to step it back a bit.
And to be honest, if I, as official, have offended an assistant coach by being familiar with him (i.e. using his first name), and he has the guts to ask me to call him coach, my response would likely be: "Sorry coach, I'll call you that going forward, but since you're an assistant coach, I shouldn't have to call you anything for the rest of the game." That should be warning enough.
On the other hand, the other piece of this incident - assistant coach questioning a call that had already been discussed.... GONE.
