Technical Fouls
 
Hey Everyone,

Thank you so much for clarifying what can sometimes be a gray area in basketball. Players, coaches and referees alike sometimes let their personal feelings get to them during a game. I just wanted to make sure that if I was reffing I would be controlling the game justifiably and within the rules of this fine game :)

Thanks again,

Torez

There's no provision stating that I can't give both technicals to the same person. But there is a limit.

That should be clarified.

Not trying to be a smart-aleck, but what's unclear? Any team member can be assessed a "maximum of 2" direct technical fouls. The penalty section of the technical fouls in Rule 10 was changed specifically so that you could only give 2 to any one person.

That's the clarification that was needed. ;)

PS Class A this season.

I guess that multiple technical foul I called last year shouldn't have been called then. I told the guy he disrespectfully addressed me while using profanity while being out of the coaching box. Seemed to me like 3 fouls committed simultaneously ;)

Ok, I see. Thanks. The confusion was in my post, not in the rule. The rule clearly says a maximum of 2 "direct" technicals.

Yeah, yeah. But I don't have this year's book yet. So I was reading from last year's. . . Blah, blah, blah. I'm an idiot. For the record, this year's book says "a maximum of two CLASS A technical fouls (AA)". . .
