After the Coach Technical

I'm sure there was more said in the beginning or at the end of what was posted here

At one time I subscribed to this idea.

But the real meaning is that the calling official needs to be ready to make the next tough call even if it goes against the coach that recieved the T. Have the intestinal fortitude to keep calling the game that is in front of you. Sometimes the next foul is in your lap and it goes against the team that just got T'd. Get it right and move on.

Ya think??

I think so, too...somehow the whole message was pared down to what the friend told the OP'er. Somehow I don't think that was the point the "NBA guy" was trying to get across.

Yes there was a lot more before and after, but this was the part I wanted feedback from the forum.

The overall points were aimed at his two partners who the clinician felt were not "taking care of business". All three Ts in the game were for very obvious profanity directed at different times to different members of the crew. C, P, AC. received Ts by the one referee. The clinician did specifically stop the tape on the calls immediately following only the Coach T, and at that time made the statement that was the catalyst for this thread.

I think the point is to have the courage to continue calling the game following the T. I think many, if not all, of us have been in a situation where a T is issued and plays are called in favor of that team when they really shouldn't be. If you haven't been in a situation like this, learn from those who have.

I thought this thread had something to do with how some officials treat a coach after a T. Specifically, how the calling official's partner(s) treat the coach.
