After 60 seconds, all players on Team A, including the properly bandaged A1, are ready to play ball. Meanwhile, the coach, and trainer, from Team B take a lot more time to "check out" B1's condition, while B1, Coach A, and Trainer A, are still on the court. After a full minute passes, Coach B decides to take a 30 second time out, which is granted, to put a bandage onto B1's cut, and takes all his players to his bench area during the time out. After 30 seconds, all players on Team B, including the properly bandaged B1, are ready to play ball.

Is this a correct scenario? If so, aren't these consecutive timeouts? I'm not sure, so again, citations please.
I believe that all players need to be properly attended to prior to any subs. Therefore, Team A cannot take a timeout or sub prior to to B1 being at least at the team's bench.
