When can a timeout be called? During a dead ball or when in player/team control, correct? Situation: A1 has the ball for a throw in on B's endline with 6 seconds left down by 2. A1 throws the ball in to A2 who throws a baseball pass down court toward A3. While the ball is in the air, A's coach is screaming for a timeout which is recognized by the C official. Should the timeout be granted? Rule 4.12.1-6 Art 2 states: A team is in control of the ball when a player of the team is in control, while a live ball is being passed among teammates and during an interrupted dribble.

Do not grant the timeout while the ball is in flight on a pass. I do not have my rulebook today so I can't cite the rule, but in order to have a timeout request granted, a player on the team in control must be in control of the ball. Team control is not sufficient. There is no player control when the ball is in flight on the pass.

The timeout by A's coach would eliminate the WHAT IF'S, which is the point. According to the rule team control still exists during a pass among teammates. I am looking for the rule to substantiate when a timeout can and should be called/granted. Thanks!

A TO can only be grnated when the ball is dead, or in control of or at the disposal of a PLAYER of that team. See 5-8 |

That's why I'd like time-outs to be given back to the players, and no coaches involved. Hearing "Time-Out", taking eyes off players to be sure it's the Head Coach, turning back around to see if the Coach's team still has the ball......way too much to do in that short a time. It seems 1/3 of the time the team has lost the ball, and a time-out can't be granted, so now the coach is po'd cause you didn't grant the time out when his/her team had the ball, when the time out was requested. I can get myself in enough trouble on the floor. This rule just makes it easier to get into more trouble.
