Juulie:

I really think you need to do a better job of getting your point across and emphasizing the important things that need to be done by the game officials during a timeout, .

P.S. You need to apologize to the late J. Dallas Shirley for you use of the word "always," .

Agree. This is part of my pregame, especially when I work with a partner for the first time:

Timeout Mechanics
When the ball is dead, we must be alive. Team calling timeout must have player dribbling or holding the ball. Both officials must know the game situation when play resumes following a timeout (team, direction, spot or run baseline, shooter, number of shots). One official at spot of throwin or free throw line with ball facing direction in which it will be put into play. Other official at division line, quarter for 30 second and three quarters for 60 second.
