Is this a successive time-out?

No 2nd time out allowed...(I believe...!) I don't think you are allowed successive T.O's in overtime. No book handy for a rule ref, though.

Not allowed after time expires for the preceding period and before the OT begins. But, the OT begins on the FT. Timeout should be allowed.

CoachP - CMat and Camron are correct, I believe. By the rule, the extra period has begun when the ball becomes live (at the disposal of the free thrower) for the first techincal foul free throw, therefore, allow the time-out, as it's not violating 5-12-3.

Just thought it was an interesting question.
