I agree with NCAAREF. As a part of Game Management skills, an official must know what is going on around him/her and be able to anticipate these calls. It should become 2nd nature for an official to know how close the score is, time remaining, etc., and know when to glance at the bench. I do not agree that a time out is a courtesy, but is a right. You have an obligation to grant a time out if it is called.
Granted, I am more used to 3 person crews, and it is somewhat easier to watch for these types of things, but these are the types of things that should be addressed in a pre-game.
