1. "call it both ways ref"
2. "look at the fouls ref, it's 7 to 1"
3. "he went over his back ref" This is during a rebound with his player in front of the opponent and no call is made.
4. "when are you going to call the 3 secs ref"
5. When you make a blocking call on his player and the coach insists that he was set.
6. "Isn't the hand part of the ball" This would be on a shot attempt.

1. "Coach, are you accusing me of cheating?"
2. See #1

If he's previously been warned, 1 & 2 will get him a T.

3. I ignore this one.
4. "Coach, you've got 3 seconds to stop officiating and start coaching."
5. I ignore this one.
6. "Yes, it is."

Are you under the impression that the hand is not "part of the ball" on a shot?
