I recall reading somewhere that the official is supposed to direct the players to stand if they go sit down during a 30-second time-out. They need to comply immediately. If they refuse, they are subject to a team technical foul.

me thinks this is in regard to those 5 that were on the court when the timeout happened -- THEY HAVE TO REMAIN ON THE COURT -- they cannot sit.
other then them standing i dont care if the other players sit, stand, get water, go to take a pi$$. On a 30second timeout there is only a limitation for the active 5 to remain on the court -- if the coach subs one out and he sits then that is fine. I don't think this has ever been an issue in any of my games and I cannot recall anyone ever mentioning a 30second timout nightmare like this
