 I don't have my rule book here at work. How important is the fact that the spillage is after a timeout, or not after a timeout, in terms of assessing penalties, either a DOG warning, or a DOG technical foul? Is the difference (timeout, no timeout) inconsequential, or is the difference important?
Also, can the coach avoid a delay warning, or a delay technical foul, by requesting, and being granted, a timeout to clean up the spillage?
