Had an undefeated ranked team last night. Player drives gets fouled, easy call since the defender moved towards an airborne shooter with significant contact, ball was definitely affected and did not go in, call the foul, offender yells at me and throws their arms around. Technical foul.

Player made both shooting fouls with the lanes cleared, made both technical foul free throws, their team got the ball at half court. That team ended up losing by three.

Slept like a baby. I have no problem if a player or coach crosses the line and violates a rule in the rulebook. A technical foul is just another foul and that’s why it’s in rule 10. Take care of your business and help the next crew.
