First tossed coach of the season!

Frankly, coach should have probably been dealt with sooner if he was that much of a PITA for the first quarter. But if he wasn't, I probably would have offered a "let it go, coach" pretty soon after that travel if he was still complaning.

I'm not convinced I wouldn't have popped both the ACs instead of giving the HC his 2nd. Same result, two more FTs, and both ACs are now one idiot move away from their own early exit.

Adam I really like this. The AC's are not allowed to jump up and talk to us much less jump on the band wagon. This allows us to take care of the bench without ejecting the coach. Could we even huddle at mid court and let them simmer while we report the first T and the AC T('s)?

Too bad, as has already been pointed out, the bold part isn't true. One direct, plus two indirects equals bye bye coach.

They were posting that as I was posting. Great point. Obviously we are trying to find a way not to eject the coach. I am curious see how you guys avoid this if at all possible.

Why? The coach is well aware of what the potential consequences of his actions are. Once he gets the first one, it is his responsibility to control himself, not our responsibility to find a reason to allow him to continue to act like a jackass.

Actually, I was not looking for a way to avoid tossing the coach. That's the "same result" I was looking for; this coach deserved his exit.

But the ACs don't get to just jump in either without consequence.
