Actually, I meant to put a question mark on that one; I wasn't sure. It had been a long day with two long days to come (one more to go).

SUCCESSIVE TIME-OUTS
5.12.3 SITUATION A: A1 is fouled by B1 while in the act of shooting. While the
try is in flight the horn sounds ending the fourth quarter playing time. The ball
continues its flight and goes through the basket to tie the score. Before A1
attempts the free throw as part of the fourth quarter, Team B captain requests and
is granted a 60-second time-out. Team A or B captain then requests a 30-second
time-out during the same dead-ball period. RULING: The second request is
denied. At the end of playing time for the fourth quarter or any overtime period,
successive time-outs shall not be granted. This means a time-out cannot be
granted either team until the clock has run in the extra period – assuming the
free throw is missed. Successive time-outs may be granted in all situations
except after time has expired in the fourth quarter or any extra period.

Thanks.

Actually, I knew I was missing the definition of "successive timeouts," and was actually asking a question; albeit poorly.
