Resumption of Play Advice

If I'm reffing, this would be my cue to put the ball on the floor. If coach thought the timer started counting prematurely, he should have asked an assistant to talk to you about it right at the beginning of the time-out. Or even said something at the first horn. He's being fractious, and it would not be out of line at all to give him exactly what he asked for -- he's already used his full 60, and now it's time to start. Be sure your partner is on the same page. Use some intense eye contact, or huddle if convenient.
