We make fun of announcers who say, "officials shouldn't decide the game in the last two minutes." But then we say, "I'm not going to worry about the coaches behavior now that it's late and close." Players learn our boundaries and so do coaches. When we change, they will adjust.

A good article that includes some quotes from John Adams about coach behavior:
What to do about coaches behaving badly towards the refs? | Hoop Thoughts | FanNation.com
There's no just turning and telling the coach "that's enough." You're going to have to yell that to a coach that's a considerable amount of distance away from everyone. That or you're going to have to hold up the game to walk over to the coach and address him.

And if we're talking about handling this the same no matter what, I wouldn't expect this to be handle that much differently at any other point in the game. Perhaps if they were on the coach's end of the floor, and official would be there to talk to him...but opposite end of the floor? "That's awful" is tame stuff...but to each their own I suppose.
