On a side note and not to HiJack this thread. Can a TO be take before the initial Jump has occurred?
Had a coach show up late for a game, like moments before game time, he was so disorganized that he needed a TO to get his team on the floor. The officials granted the TO but I thought it was a little off. I was observing the game, not one of the officials in this one.

No, a TO cannot be granted during an interval of play. See the FIBA Official Interpretations (2008), articles 17/18, situation 1.
