The officials in our area as a matter of course, always ask the scorer how many time outs a team has as we near the end of a game, then relay it to the coach. I always let a coach know when he/she only has one time out, sometimes even if they have 2 left in a close game. I view this as preventive action.
Are you suggesting we NEVER tell a coach how many time out he has?
I agree the OP was handled correctly given the facts presented, but it does make one wonder.
