If it's not close (TO signficantly before the foul), call intentional technical foul and shoot the free throws after the TO is completed.

If not close, why call intentional foul? This assuming foul wasn't of a flagrant nature.
If I'm visualizing this right, off ball official signals TO, lets say a second or two before breakaway intentional. By rule, I maybe wrong but where is the advantage? Would the same pertain to a common foul after whistle blew for timeout within a second, and officials had to sort out what came first? To me the defender is making a play albeit a heavily penalized one. But a timeout was called prior, so nothing happened.
