I agree... 30 Seconds to replace both.

On a similiar vain....

I had a player twist a knee and collapse on the court last night. (It was my first "serious" player injury since I became an official.) She was in obvious pain and unable to move. The coach was beckoned from the bench. She hustled onto the court and quickly summoned another individual from the bleachers. I assumed it was the parent or a doctor. They assessed the player with the usual questions' "Where does it hurt?", etc..

The Timer sounds the horn, I approach the table and the Timer states... "The 30-seconds have passed, she (the coach) needs to put in a sub." I stated that she was gonna take as much time as necessary to ensure the safety of her player.

I felt the Timer was a bit impatient (and insensitive) about this situation. Am I wrong?
