Basketball timeout

[js2397]

After a made basket can the defense call a timeout at any point before the ball is inbounded?

No, if inbounding team has possesion, no TO. Now that I said that, by rule if basket is made and B grabs ball after made basket and is still inbounds I'm pretty sure defense can still call TO. No rule book at work.

The defense can call time out until the offensive player is in control of the ball for the throw in.

Not quite - I believe there was a ruling or interp that stated "at the disposal" was when the official has started the 5-second count, not just "in control of the ball". Perhaps someone with outstanding search skills will come up with the past threads?

I recommend a poll.

They can be granted a timeout until you start the 5 count for the thrower in.

I believe I learned this from Bob on another forum. The throw-in, the count, "at disposal" and "too late for the other team to be granted a time out" all occur at the same time. If you have one, you have them all. If you don't have one, you don't have any.

Always listen to Bob.
