Another angle: You hear team A's coach say "I want a time-out after this free throw." But A1 stops listening after "I want a time-out......" and asks for the time-out NOW. You have to call one there, don't you?

What does your question have to do with granting a player a time-out when he/she is falling OOB or is airborne?
