I'm not disagreeing and maybe your method is better than mine, but I've never mucked up a TO at any level -- I'm sure I will now though. There are just some situations I think it's a judgement call.

B1 shoots and scores. All B players run back on defense. A1 passes the ball in to A2 and the closest B player is 50 feet away. If the coach says TO then turns around to pickup his clipboard or starting talking with his bench, I have no problem giving him the TO when A2 gets the ball.
