Taking care of business vs. being a nice guy (long and somehwat of a rant)

[bigwhistle]

I agree that the first violation could be handled with "niceness". I would not have stopped the game, however. When you tell the coach to honor his box and he comments "am I bothering your game?" you can tell him that the other coach is respecting the box and that he is gaining an unfair advantage for being so far away from the box.

Second incident should probably have resulted in a T when his position on the floor distracted you from making a call. He DID take you out of your game.
