I was the L and we were ready to shoot the free throws. The shooter was chatting with the coach, and the coach wouldn't let him come to the line until he was done talking with the shooter. Coach received a technical foul from my partner for delay of game.

[/B][/QUOTE]Why did your partner T up the coach? The rule has always been the same- the T goes to the shooter. Rule 10-3-6(c) is pretty explicit, and that language has been in the book for many years.
