How tight is the seat belt?

I saw him do this about 2 or 3 times, while I had time to glance over. I didn't say anything and I didn't do anything. I was across the floor.

Would anyone else call a "T" for that action? Just wondering.

If the Coach is rising to coach his/her players and quickly sitting right back down I'm not really concerned with it. Especially after an indirect. If it persists too much for your liking I would definitely remind/warn before going straight to a T here.

I had no problem with the HC complaining, but I had enough from the assistant. This was in the 3rd Q. Partners agreed she was getting on their nerves also.

I did not warn her. This is something I need to work on.

One thing I have very little tolerance for is chatter from the bench. After I hear it more than once I will let the HC know, "Coach we will listen to you within reason but I'm not going to listen to your bench." Most coaches get this and TCB very quickly.

I almost never directly address asst coaches unless it's to relay info coming out of a TO or deadball or something. Asst coaches don't get warnings IMO. Deal directly with the HC. It's their job to control their bench.

Lol.

When it comes to bench personnel I guess I do. I think my first T last season was during a tip off tourny when an injured player on the bench said, "these guys are terrible" after a call.

The president of my association was working the next game and sitting not too far behind the bench. In the locker room he said, "good T. Their bench had made a couple of other comments then that little $#%! chimes in. I'm glad you TCB."

All this damn Tech talk jinxed me. T'd my second HC this week (we had 5 total tonight). Don't think he got up afterwards but really didn't pay attention.
