Also. Let's say that A1 and B1 bang heads, and start bleeding. Coaches, and trainers, are beckoned onto the court, and all come out onto the court to attend to their players. Coach A decides, in only a few seconds, to take a 60 second time out, which is granted, to put a bandage onto A1's cut, and takes all his players to his bench area during the time out. 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.

In the same section that dictates they run concurrently is the requirement that a full t/o must be taken to keep an injured/bleeding player in the game. There is a specific exception that allows for a 30 to be expended if no full to's are remaining. If you have a full to and you want to keep the injured player in the game, you must use it.
The scenario you described above would only be legal ONLY if Team B had no full to's
available. Play would resume at the end of the full to granted to team A.

BTW, been almost a week for you? Any DTs or other side effects of withdrawal?
