What would you do?

Taunting can either be normal T or a flagrant T,depending on how the official interprets the severity of the individual act.

Easy, then. The Meadowlark Lemon bit gets called a flagrant T. Kid's booted, sub shoots the last shot, and the other team gets two shots and the ball at half court.
Kid also gets to sit the next game.
Which brings up a question. Does he sit the first game of the next year? Does have to sit out a soph game?

The coach wants a TO, right? Just tell the coach not to send the shooter back out, put the ball on the floor, and count to 10. You're legal and the coach gets his wish.

It's that simple.

In my rec league, we have some kids at the HS level who also ref for me. In the final weekend, I was visiting a lot of the gyms to check on the guys and see if they were having any problems. One of the refs, who also plays, was working two morning games, and had an afternoon game in which he was going to play and I was going to ref. He asked me that if anyone got ejected, would the penalty (missing the next game) get carried over to the following year.

I paused for a moment and then said, "only if it's you".

He laughed then, and later he played an excellent game. No - I didn't throw him out.
