Know your coaches before the game and donβt get surprised. Technical fouls should call themselves, we never want to be actively looking to call technical fouls but canβt be afraid when it presents itself. Ron gives an unemotional technical foul, and then gets away. As a crew we will get the shooter lined up, shoot our free throws and get the ball back in play. Technical fouls should be treated as just another foul call. Remember, it is not personal!
