Oh? Try reading the applicable rule- R5-8-3----"Time out occurs and the clock, if running, shall stop when an official
GRANTS a player's/head coach's oral or visual request for a timeout."
No, I don't expect the timer to read an official's mind. I do expect an official to look at the clock however and note the time on it when he
GRANTS the TO. That's definite information and it's the time that he can put back up on the clock, by rule(5-10).
Lah me, indeed......
