Any time a coach starts a sentence or a phrase with "You..." it will never end well. These are borderline automatic warnings, if not T's, for me.

Had a game this season where a coach said "You...

I love this thread.

I don't mind when a player yells "and one" if he has indeed been fouled, like in celebration, so long as it's not toward an opponent or in an unsportsmanlike manner. But when...

I think you can argue from that last angle that 33 White moved his torso into the ball-handler. I didn't really notice it during the broadcast.

Is it common for a men's wreck league to not allow dunking? Or is that referring to hanging on the rim, etc.

Sub for shooter?

I was at my brother's game tonight and his team is on the line shooting two. There's a sub at the table, after the first he's beckoned in and tells the ref he's coming in for the shooter.

On No. 5, are we sure he's indicating it's an RA block? I don't see him do it after he gives the block signal, and when it's a close-up of him, that motion he does with his hand seems more like he's...

We'll agree to disagree. We're not babysitters. When it gets to seven fouls I don't say anything to the coaches. I say "line it up ladies/gentlemen, one-and-one."

I'm still short of qualifying this as baiting. I'm interpreting "you, coach the team" as kind of like saying "you do you coach" and assuming he knew the rule.

It's not your responsibility to remind him of the rule. He should know that as a coach. This wasn't their first game, was it?

You did the right thing by enforcing the rule.

I have the foul before the shot as well. Had she thrown the ball at the basket before finishing the jump stop, I would have a shooting foul (not that it was really feasible in this situation).

If he says "That's a bad call" to my face after I've told him to stop jumping up and down in exasperation, he's getting whacked. If he turns and mutters it to his bench, then I'm probably ignoring it.

Exactly. The hypothetical quotation implied that the coach asked. I just think it's a better idea to go through the AD in that situation.
