throw as part of the fourth quarter, Team B captain requests and is granted a 60-

second time-out. Team A or B captain then requests a 30-second time-out during

the same dead-ball period. RULING: The second request is denied. At the end of

playing time for the fourth quarter or any overtime period, successive time-outs

shall not be granted. This means a time-out cannot be granted either team until

the clock has run in the extra period – assuming the free throw is missed.

Successive time-outs may be granted in all situations except after time has

expired in the fourth quarter or any extra period.



5.11.7 SITUATION B: Following the expiration of time for the first extra period,

the coach of Team B is charged with a technical foul. Team B requests a time-out

before the free throws are administered to start the second extra period. The

time-out request is granted. Thereafter, the official administers the first free throw

to A1. Following the attempt: (a) Team B; or (b) Team A, then requests a time-out.

RULING: The request cannot be granted in either (a) or (b), as it would be consid -

ered a successive time-out. The fact that the ball did become live between the two

requests has no bearing on the ruling. Another time-out request by either team

cannot be honored until after the clock has started in the second extra period.

Make him actually crack a book. I could've cut and pasted too, but I chose not to.

Any time I copy, and paste, rule, or casebook, citations (from the NFHS 2011-12 rulebook, and casebook, on my hard drive, the newest available to me) it's mostly for me, and everybody else on the Forum, not necessarily for the benefit of a single Forum member.

However, I do lean toward the information posted in threads and posts on the Forum to be a twenty-first century reference source, the same as the information printed on dead trees was back in the twentieth century. I equate coming to the Forum for information to be almost the same as cracking open a book, especially as more and more are asking Siri, and Alexa for information.

"Alexa. Are successive timeouts legal in a basketball game?"

Gone forever are the times down at the local gin joint when the debate of the night would be who shared one the three parts of the triple crown with Carl Yastrzemski in 1967. No need to go to the library, or even own a computer, just find the answer on a smart phone, and you don't even have to drop a dime in the phone (Google it young'uns). A search engine is almost like the table of contents, or the index, in a reference book.

Harmon Killebrew. He and Yaz both had forty-four home runs to lead the American League in 1967.
