The point of adding the time out request was to see if anyone would offer a time out to a player (A1) with the ball trapped between the legs?
Since CB's have so aptly put it there is no Control by team A.
There might be team control by Team A during a loose ball, but there's no player control. In any event, nobody who works FIBA would grant it!
