I don’t agree with that either because that is exactly the type of stuff that will drive a coach crazy. Now I know some of you don’t care if you make a coach crazy or not, but there does need to be consistency in how these things are handled.
Late in the game, Coach says to referee A during a free throw that he wants a TO on the make. Official says sure thing coach, coach turns to talk to his assistant, basket goes in, official whistles for time and things go from there. Three weeks later, coach is in same situation and says the same thing to referee B this time. Ref says alright, coach turns to talk to his assistant, basket goes in, coach looks up and sees the other team half-way up the floor with the ball. He asks where his TO is and the ref says you need to ask at the right time. Coach is probably going to get T’d up and then Ref B will come on here complaining about how coach doesn’t know the rules about calling a time-out.
