Difficult Timeout ...

And here's what crew chief Bill Kennedy had to say in an interview with a pool reporter:

Question: Chauncey said after the game that he tried to call a timeout. Why was he not granted a timeout in that situation?

Kennedy: The referee in the slot position was refereeing the double team that was right in front of him, which makes it difficult for number one to hear and number two to see a coach request a timeout behind him. He is taught to referee the play until completion, which a double dribble happens, and he correctly calls the double dribble and then pursuant (to that) the technical fouls come forward.
