So - a team is up by 25 with two minutes to go and the fans of the losing team blame it all on the refs. What else is new?

Simple matter of math, Mark. Apparently, the coach in question felt that the referee team was worth a triple double. Thus, the 25 point lead was still less than the 30 spot that the officiating team was worth.

The player face guarding me would've gotten the fastest technical I've ever given and then I would've probably ended up with two on the bench.

If it's true (stress on IF) that the officials allowed this face-guarding to happen for a long period of time, then I gotta wonder about the caliber of these officials.
