I'm not sure what I would do if I saw a coach do a handstand, but I would definitely give a tech for throwing a clipboard.

Coach K is being less than honest; to be generous, I'll say disingenuous. In threw the marker in direct reaction to the conclusion of his conversation with Jamie Luckie.

This is the kind of enforcement by officials that will get this behavior out of the game. If only it would be genuinely supported by every coordinator and assigner.

Exactly. Good for Luckie.

Every time Coach K gets whacked an angel gets his wings.

Beilein, the camera did not get the T. But he met Mike Kitts on the floor as he turned to go from T to L.

My son's JV coach was mad at his team's center a few years back for not blocking out on a rebound. Coach turned and fired his marker at the stands. It promptly bounced back and hit the Official in the leg as he was running down the court.

Insta-T!

The coach was apologizing all over the place, trying to explain he threw the marker in the other direction, he wasn't even angry about any calls, turning red, he's so sorry, it didn't mark his pants, he's so sorry ... finally, even the Ref was smiling.

Didn't reverse the T, but he smiled.

Had a coach slam down a clipboard over 20 years ago -- the metal clip broke off and shot across the court.

Easy T.

Easy T.

Had a coach try to slap his open hand with his clipboard and missed. The clipboard skittered out on to the floor.

Easy T for me too. Coach tried to explain that he was mad at his player... Meh.
