			Question about when a time-out will be granted.  
 In the league where I coach, the refs do not seem to have a consistent rule about how to handle this, so I was wondering what the official rule is:
 
 Will time-out be granted during the following:
 
 1.  Ball is taken out of bounds after a foul or violation. Can defensive team call a time-out before ball is given to inbounder?
 
 2.  After a made basket when referee asks for ball.  Ball is in possession of ref, can defense call time-out? (I know the ref does not need to touch the ball after a made basket, but this one happens a lot.)
 
 3.  Ball is taken out of bounds after being knocked out.  Can defensive team call time-out?
