Sure. Then, before the official has a chance to report the Ts, he turns and starts taunting the other team during warmups. 4, 5, and 6.

Seriously, this would be a situation where I'd give the coach a lot of leeway when yelling at the players. He's already done anyway. :)

And he was chewing tobacco.

Nice, now you get a flagrant one as well. Not that it matters at this point, kid's already having a career night.

And if Padgett was officiating that game, he might just retire he'd be so happy; after his cigarette, of course.

No, only one technical foul is issued for dunking a dead ball.

What is the point of doing that? So he gets 2 indirects before the game, all the third player has to do is stand up off the bench as soon as the game starts. You're just delaying the ejection. If they want him gone you won't be able to stop them.

LDUB, that's a good point. Might give him a chance to address it before the game, though. Then again, the players could all simply jump off the bench as soon as the ball becomes live.

I'm no longer in favor of that change; it wouldn't have any impact.
