I guess I haven't gotten the rule straight, about taking an overtime to let the player back in, after an injury or bloody shirt or something. Is is really the case that they don't get to use the whole time out if the player is ready to go early? What's the point to that rule? What problem does it solve?
And if there's one player from each team that has to be bought back in, why are the TO's concurrent? Why not successive? If Coach A decides to buy his player back in and then Player A is ready, so A's TO is about over, and then after that Coach B decides to buy his player back in, and asks for a TO, is it too late? At that point, if player B isn't ready yet, can Coach B at that point have as much of the 60 as it takes to get B ready?
I'm just not gittin' it, here.
