Assuming HS (and for that matter NCAA too), and less than a minute to play in a close game. Any request for a TO and you put air in the whistle is a TO period. You don't want to give a team an advantage with an inadvertent whistle, allowing subs to come in when the clock should have never stopped. NFHS has a problem in this area and the clock not stopping after a made basket with less than a minute to play. Now here's where we need a rule change. We are taught in NFHS that if a coach doesn't have anymore TO's, to ignore the TO request or any attempts to try and stop the clock with 5 or less seconds remaining, particularly after a made basket. You don't want to have an inadvertent whistle here.
Now here's a good one for you. 5 seconds remaining in the game, NFHS, team A down by 1 after just scoring. Team A coach requests TO that he doesn't have. You grant TO stopping the clock with 4 seconds left. Access TF to Team A. Where is the ball inbounded after the F/T's from the TF? Does the team still have inbound priviledges if from the baseline?
