The lead official looks really engaged. Is he even counting?

No he is not. And the coach is yelling at the wrong official as well.

That's an awful quick T when, IMO, the coach had a pretty valid point.

Do you have any idea what the coach said?

No I don't, and perhaps it contained some magic words, but after such a huge miss by his partner, I certainly would have a little longer leash even for some of the magic words.

That assumes that the official giving the T even saw the play. It is very possible he is looking at the other 8 players on the floor or some other match-up that he would not have seen this play. So I do not blame him for this situation at all.

If the Trail has more than a peripheral look at that play then he's not doing his job officiating the rest of the court. Potentially missing something isn't carte blanche for the HC to say whatever he wants.
