The official said I could not have the TO because it had to happen in the order it occurred. So he told me we had to shoot the ball before I could have a timeout. His example was if we had a common shooting foul and then a technical, we would shoot in order as they happened, I told him i knew that and that I didn't know why I still couldn't have a timeout. As I said before, it was not that I was upset, I was just wondering why he would not grant my request for a TO. I was not even disputing the T.

I believe you, and given the fact that the technical foul seems to have discombobulated the officials, the mistake in red doesn't surprise me, either.
