I agree. You definately learn through experience and repetition

Stuff all sounds reasonable. I like the fact you gave the kid a chance to stop reacting, then took care of business.

One way to keep game management strong during technicals: your partner should come to you after you give a T, and state exactly what will happen from that point forward. They should take control and let you just ride along. Almost everyone gets a little pumped/goofy when they call a T, and can use help. If you called those 2 T's, I'd have grabbed you, and asked if you had a double T. I would have then said, "OK, we have the foul on white 12, then a double T on white 12. The sub is in the game. We're going to shoot 4 free throws for blue, then get the teams lined up for the one-and-one for blue. You go administrate the free throws to get away from that bench, and I'll stay back here. OK?"

You will learn to see the big picture by doing games. The fact you are being introspective about it is huge. You'll put those pieces together and improve in a hurry. Keep up the good work!

Speaking NF, wouldn't the 1&1 be shot first, followed by the technical foul free throws, and then a throw-in? (What you posted appears to be true for NCAA)

Correct, for NFHS you'd shoot the 1&1 w/ lane cleared, then 4 technical FTs, then ball out at division line for offended team.

I don't want my partner coming over and telling me what is going to happen after any of my calls. I already know. I made the d@mn call!

If I want their input of help, I will go to them. Also, I don't feel the need to run away from a coach after T'ing him. I hate it when a partner comes running over and thinks that I need to leave after a T. The official on the other side of the floor has no idea what caused the T. Most of my Ts are actually because the coach is upset with my partner and I am protecting their back. Now the official that the coach is upset with has come right over into the fire.

I pregame that we leave the decision up to the calling official. If he wants to leave that area, he just walks to the opposite side of the floor and someone else fills in. If that official is okay to stay, then he stays put.

From Nevadaref: "I don't feel the need to run away from a coach after T'ing him. I hate it when a partner comes running over and thinks that I need to leave after a T."

I agree. After a simple player disqualification (5 fouls), our IAABO mechanics require that the non calling official inform the coach that the player has been disqualified. I hate that mechanic. It makes it look like I'm afraid of the coach. In my pregame, I tell my partner that under normaL circumstances, if I'm the calling official, I will tell the coach that his or her player is disqualified, unless I believe that my presence near the coach will lead to a technical foul on the coach, in which case I will ask my partner to inform the coach about the disqualification. Same thing for a technical foul that will lead to the coach losing his or her coaching box privilege. If I make the call, I will tell the coach, again, unless my leaving can prevent a second technical foul. In twenty-six years of officiaiting, I've never handed this off to my partner, but, neverthless, I may need my partner's help someday.

I agree with this. If it's an obvious situation, just turn around and say, "Coach, that's 5". If it's heated, then have a partner do it.
