I stop and tell him "No you were not, both you and I know what you were doing and that is enough." As I leave someone on the bench mutters something about being a tough guy. I leave it alone and go downcourt.
Thought about giving bench a T but didn't. Thoughts?

...as this coach intentionally saying this for you to hear.


I would like to know a bit more about the situation and the game up until that point. If you hadn't heard much from coach up until now, I agree with how you handled it and you could have even ignored it. If he has been howling all night, this may be "T" worthy.
