Second, just to add one small thing to what Jurassic said. He gave you exactly the right info about lag time. I just want to say that it doesn't matter when the coach was requesting the time out. He was yelling for the TO while the ball was still in the basket. Understandable. But the ball's not dead until it passes through the basket; so you can't grant the TO until then.

The clock should show the amount of time that was there when an official granted the TO, not when it was requested. I'm not sure that would've mattered in your situation, but it might be helpful in the future.

Might not. Who knows?
Thanks for the clarification and input guys...

I'll usually work about 4-6 on typical weekend...My wife just lost her job so the extra games are somewhat a necessity right now

It was really a good game and fun to officiate...There were several teams who had finished games on other courts as well as their parents congregating around our court to watch the finish...It was a shame either team had to take an L...they were both playing pretty hard out there...
