Two possible scenarios as I see it with just a little thought...

1) Time out was granted and during the TO the table made the officials aware of an issue that they addressed. In this case, I would inform the coaches of the adjustment to the clock and restart the TO. If either coach complains I would explain that when the crew was informed that issue took precedence. Had we been informed prior to the request it would not have been granted until the issue was resolved.

2) Time out was granted and the crew went to the table to address a timing issue. Crew, in my opinion, kicked this as they should have kept the players on the court until the issue was resolved and then granted the TO.

I agree the coach had a legit complaint...and that he needs to learn how to manage his frustration and understand that being right is not always the best possible outcome.
