ESPN ran a segment on this on SportsCenter. They even interviewed one of the officials. He stated that he had to assess the technical foul, despite the opposing coach stating that he didn't desire it, so as not to compromise the integrity of the game.

I happen to agree with him. The official's job is to make the proper call. It is up to the coaches and players to decide what they wish to do with their opportunities.
