I think we need to be aware at junctures of the game where teams/coaches may want a timeout. Usually, coaches start out reasonably and won't run out on the court unless their initial request isn't acknowledged. During the timeout, I would address timeout awareness with the crew. When we are bringing the teams out of the timeout, I would casually tell the coach something like, "Coach, I know you are trying hard to get our attention, but I really need you to stay in your box."

I think most coaches are just caught up in the intensity of the game and just need to be reminded to bring it down a notch.
