It happened again...

There was a post earlier about Improper timeouts that I posted a situation I had: http://forum.officiating.com/showpos...97&postcount=2

Well...the same type of situation happened again today...you can read in detail here:

http://waytogogenius.com/?p=42

Basically...

The coach was screaming TIME TIME! Screaming it a lot. I didn't hear it...I either heard something else, or was in a zone...it got to the point that fans and players were all screaming TIME TIME as well. Not one time did I hear TIME OUT! Not once. My back was also to the coach so I could not see a signal. By the time I realized what he was saying, there was no possession and I couldn't give it to him.

His team steals the ball and I'm going back down to his side of court when he says "Time!" and signals with a T...I finally grant timeout as he is yelling at me that he called it 30 times before and I didn't give it to him. I told him that the word TIME sounds like a lot of other words, especially when being yelled and he needed to say Time-Out. He blew me off and went to his huddle.

I talked to my partner, who was trail and he said he did notice the coach calling for timeout.

Am I in the wrong here? I'm a little torn here...
