A common misconception. The players need to be beyond the 3-point line and beyond the free throw line extended -- all the places they are allowed if they are not in a marked lane space.

... my edurcation continues!

So, while he is seated, coach could caucus with his players (who would need to be on the court above FT line extended and outside of 3-point line) during the 2 tries for the foul, and the 2 tries for the technical.

Yes...as long as the players remain on the court.

I appreciate Hard's support and interpretation, but after reviewing my case book and rules last night, I agree with other comments that my partner and I applies the "delay after TO" procedure instead of, as in our case, the coach simply refused to put his players on the court to begin play.

Live and learn......

I don't believe the coach needs to be seated during the shooting of the technical free throws while talking to his players. I don't have my rule book with me, but I think he can stand "during" the technical. Of course, he needs his seatbelt when play resumes.

If the HC is charged either directly or indirectly with the T, then he/she needs to be seated before the ball becomes live on the first FT attempt following the T.

Nope. See rule 10-5NOTES1.

nevada -- RE the T for delay returning inbounds -- I just feel a Technical is a very heavy handed penalty. violation is fair and reasonable -- like I said in the other post the FED screwed this up and I hope they change it if they want it called.

Can you please show my your rules-making badge?

Last I checked, your job was to enforce all rules - not just the ones that you agree with.
