That's my question ... is that the rule?

This happened to me in a game and Team A was signalling for TO with 2 seconds left to my partner who was the trail ... he would no grant it ... I went to blow my whistle to signal the TO was acknowledged and the horn sounds -- he proceeds to ay game over! Team A has no more TOs ... right or wrong?

I thought it was wrong, but he stepped in and declared the game over ... nobody really argued.

Yes, it is the rule:

5-12-2: "Time-outs in excess of the allotted number may be requested and shall be granted . . . at the expense of a technical foul for each.

Does your partner also officiate football? In basketball, we only "ignore" a time-out request in a few circumstances:
  1. live ball, the requesting team doesn't have control.
  2. when requested before a foul has been reported.
  3. before the opening jump ball.
  4. if it's a successive time-out at the end of the 4th quarter/OT.

And we don't even ignore the time out request in Mark's number 2. We delay granting it until the foul has been reported and any associated activity, such as replacing a disqualified player.

Sounds as if your partner was just ready to get that game done. Out of curiousity, was that the last game or did you all have more to work?
