If he did have a timeout, then it gets used in your situation. It's almost as satisfying, because 9 times out of 10 he's going to try to tell you that you can't charge it to him. He won't want to actually burn that timeout. Your shooter gets his free throw back (no harm really). Why would you go nuts?
Do you go nuts every time a timeout is granted to the coach when it shouldn't be (your team has the ball, for example)?
