Coach on court

As soon as we realize his purpose we send him right back and tell him this was inappropriate behavior. I don't tolerate that during timeouts, halftimes, etc.

And since you didn't penalize him by properly assessing a technical foul, he will do the same thing again to you or another crew. You missed a golden opportunity to take corrective action for the good of all officials in your area.

I think if he hadn't of listened right away to our direction to go back to his bench then I would've used that "golden opportunity." However, he listened right away and realized perhaps he shouldn't be there.
