Good job to grant the TO in that situation. I had a very similar play last night. Player was not airborne, but was off-balance and thought he was going to fall OOB, so he requested the TO. I granted it.

The coach's confusion probably stems from the fact that the NBA changed its rule about 3 years ago, so that a player may not be granted a TO if he is about to go OOB.
