Or around the crew's situational awareness...this is very rarely on just one of the officials. It's the crew, imho.

A couple weeks ago, I had such a game where the coach had his hands to his side and was yelling something in my general direction. With the noise in the gym, it was not possible to hear anything he said. It was the right time for a timeout but it was also possible he was yelling at his player for what they were doing. The noise died down and then I could tell he was yelling timeout. A visual to go with the verbal would be a good idea for any coach wanting to get a timeout when the official is not near them.

10 days ago, rival teams +/-3000 fans, 2 pt game, 2+1 for H team to tie (and maybe go up), I am L (admin FT) and V coach is SCREAMING at the T (calling his name only), no one on the crew (including the T who was closest to the coach) knew he wanted a TO because all he yelled was the official's name. I see him yelling my partners name, but don't know he wants a TO and that is MY fault? I don't buy it. Make a TO signal, get a player, something (anything) that lets me know he wants a TO and he could have it. I looked right at him as he yells "name!, name!, name!" I don't know if he is mad about the call, wants the TO or what. I am not and will not be a mind reader. I completely agree about situational awareness and giving TOs in places where coaches generally want them, but at the end of the day it is their job to get our attention, not the other way around.

You were right to not T. Not a crime to stare. Need to be aware of the situation and anticipate this. If you were, you'd be looking right at him after the basket and then the clock. And if timer did not stop clock, you would know how much time to put on clock. Good no T but not necessarily what you need to learn from this. Take this as what to do next time and it'll serve you well in future because it will happen again and again.
