Am I way off?

Only problem is that once they put their players out to start the 2nd half, they can't sub until the clock starts.

Reference, please.
As long as the new sub wasn't one of the player's replaced, substitutions can be made.

... but not after the horn at 15 seconds. For match-up purposes, a coach may want to know if the other team's 6-10 center, who has three fouls from the first half, is going to start the second half. If he has to wait until the players go onto the court to find out, by rule, he can't know about the match-up in time to change his own. It would be too late to substitute until until after the clock has started and then there is another opportunity to substitute. Right? Or am
I way off?
Hey, this is my 50th post. Is there any award for that? Or, at least one that does not involve squirrel anatomy? How about some of those cookies from rainmaker?
