Remember that three-pointer Jason Kidd hit to send the Bulls-Mavs game to overtime? Watch Vinny Del Negro lunge at Kidd from the Chicago bench and (presumably) scream to distract him. (Via Ball Don’t Lie.)
The best (or worst) part? He’s done it before. And it didn’t work either time: The opponent drilled a triple on both occasions. You might want to just let ‘em shoot it, Vinny
I’ve also seen Cleveland coach Mike Brown do this a number of times. I agree, its pretty dumb.

Was he yelling to distract Kidd or yelling for defensive coverage?
