Sure you do! We're in triple overtime last night
, and player A1 goes flying after a loose ball. He's
in the air falling OOB, and he requests the TO. I grant it. Coach B goes nuckin' futs saying all sorts of things (I thought of Mark and his howler monkeys. He may have a point.....).
Anyway, he kindly asks me after the game ended (in the
4th overtime, mind you) to review the play so that it wouldn't happen again. I told him I was going to do that anyway, and was off the floor.
Well sure enough case book 5.8.3D is a pretty good situation, and the rule book states a timeout is granted to a player who is in control. I'd assume that just because you're airborn doesn't mean you're not in control! Can someone please nod their head yes that I made the right call?
