To T or not to T; that is the question?

Exactly!
To the opposing coach: if I even thought this was intentional I would have whacked him.
We got a great game going - let's get back to basketball.

Where do the rules say anything about it having to be intentional?

The coach shall remain seated on the team bench, except:

The coach gets to stay in his box. If he leaves the box it's a technical. Almost all coaches follow this rule so why are we giving the misbehaving ones a pass?
