Intentional Lane Violations --- Good coaching?

[sj]

I can see eveybody's points. One thing I'll expand on a bit is that the time remaining was such that if I had blown a whistle the horn would have been blowing at the same time as I was still blowing and the clock would certainly have gone to zero.

So is there a different dynamic if there are 3 or so seconds left versus one second when the ball goes in?.....Ball goes in...coach turns and screams ( and I do mean screams to call a foul and wasn't asking for time out.)...I turn to look....I'm seeing a push (about a 4 on a scale of 1 to 10) in my peripheral vision but honestly got distracted by the coach screaming,,,horn blows. The whole episode I'm describing takes place in about one second. Certainly no more.

As for creating an atmosphere where it's allowing for the potential for very bad things to happen. I guess my contention is that there wasn't enough time left for bad things to happen. But if there is enough time remaining then no doubt it's a good point.

Please don't take any of this as being stubborn or argumentative, I'm trying to learn and figure it out. Thanks.
