I did this exact thing during a live ball. However after giving my simple answer the coach asked for a TO. I raised my hand, pointed to her bench and yelled "TIME OUT WHITE.! She looked at me and with a slight southern draw said: "You gotta blow your whistle."
It took me a second but I finally blew my whistle and got her the TO.
I've made several embarrassing blunders on the court but this one ranks very high on my list.
