Tough call at a tough time in a tough game...

[Brian Watson]

I think it encourages bad behvior if you have to walk over between the teams to sign the book, that is why over here we sign ahead of time, nod and run. When you have an emotional game the last thing officials need to do is go near the coaches.

I think you need to petition Feeble to change that. If I'm a coach I won't wait until the ink is dry to lay into.

As far as signals, ours are the same, but lets look at facts do you think the fans know what the diff between a fist and an open hand are? Most coaches are sketchy at best. Maybe FIBA fans are used to the end of game whistle, but there are times here where it is best to let it go and not blow anything.
