Difficult to believe that that was the only call all night that had the coach upset enough to follow you up court to get a T. Sounds like you might have thrown a "bone" with a call - 20 point game, time winding down, he's getting drubbed; I can see where he might be frustrated.

Usually it's not a single call that incites a coach or crowd - it's typically "the last straw' in a series of seemingly little things. Travel or not, moving screen or not, hand check or not - in a 20+ game especially sub-varsity, you're going to get a bunch of those type judgement calls. Whether to throw the coach "a bone" or not depends on a bunch of factors but usually won't get you into trouble as much as not throwing the bone. I tried to "throw a bone" the other night with 0.2 left (timing is everything) in a very lopsided game and got blasted for "trying to embarras the kids"....go figure; sometimes you feel like a nut - sometimes you don't.
