OK, won't keep you in suspense anymore...
The calling official in the coach's game called a technical, despite his partner's telling him he cannot. Coach goes beserk! Didn't affect outcome of the game, but game was close at that point (i.e., 3rd quarter). I told the coach that it was an official's mistake, inadvertant whistle, play resumes with the AP. I realized in the rule book that the timeout gets granted and Snaqwell's extra tidbit about team control during interrupted dribble means team should keep possession and no AP. I realized that if you used the AP, you could actually turn the ball over of the calling team gets it next!
So, again, many thanks to this discussion group!
