A-1 requests and is granted a timeout which is an excessive timeout. The officials chargeTeam A with an administrative technical foul, administer the one free throw and allow Team A to take the timeout. On the ensuing throw-in, does Team A receive a reset of the 10-second backcourt count?

No, even though Team A was charged with an excessive timeout, it resulted in a technical foul against Team A and therefore Team A does not receive a reset of the 10 second backcourt count.

Wow, that's funny. I sent him an email on the scenario stating that I would reset the 10-second count and he told me I was correct. Guess they went back for further review on this one.
As long as it's in writing, I'm good with whatever. They need to add it to the case book next season though.
