Player Control for Time-Out
Happened to me tonight. 2nd free throw is missed by home team with ~4 seconds left in the game. They are ahead by 3 points. During the rebound, Visitor coach runs at me (I'm near the scorer's table) and yells "Time Out", even though his player 1 is batting the ball from the rebound to his player b. I grant the time-out. Home coach goes crazy.
I think I missed this call - reading again tonight in 5-8-3, it talks about timeouts can only be granted when the ball is in control of a player - I'm thinking that batting the ball is not player control????
