That's completely wrong. The official IS required to grant a TO if the TO request is made as per NFHS rule 5-8-3. See case book plays 5.12.4SitB and 10.1.7 also.

NCAA rules are the same. The TO request MUST be granted. Ask anyone at the Univ. of Michigan.

Is Mark Cuban, or any of the Maverick trolls on this forum, also aware? Or maybe there is some different wording in the NBA rulebook

Naw, we looked up the NBA rule way back on that long thread with the Maverick fanboys and the goof that posed as Mark Cuban. The NBA rule is pretty explicit.

NBA rule 5, Section VII-g:
Requests fot a timeout in excess of the authorized number shall be granted and a technical foul shall be assessed. Following the timeout, the ball will be awarded to the opposing team and play shall resume with a throw-in nearest the spot where play was interrupted.
