However, the new Lead has got to be looking to the bench, anticipating that the coach might want a timeout. With .9 left, it probably wouldn't have made any difference but he didn't and he should have.

The WKU player near the endline and left block did signal for a TO he was looking at the C and his back was to old L new T. For my bracket I am happy with the outcome but there should have been a granted TO with ~1.1 sec. on the clock.

My ultimate point is that the players are so used to the coaches calling TO nowadays that game awareness in these situations by the players is becoming a lost art. |

Maybe, but again, the thrower in threw it in so fast I don't fault the officials for not getting any TO granted.

Several years ago we had a game where I was trail table-side, there was a backcourt steal (around the FT line, making me the new lead) and then a bucket to win with about 3-4 seconds left, then the clock ran out on the inbounds. Before the steal, the offensive player tried to dribble between 2 defenders and lost the ball, thus that coach wanted me to call a foul (that wasn't there). Though he had a timeout, the Center official told me in the locker room that he looked for the coach to call a TO, but all he did was want to scream about a foul not being called. My partner said if the coach had made ANY gesture even remotely resembling a timeout request, he would have blown the whistle and given it to him, but all he did was rant with his arms at 10 and 2 o'clock! |

Surely you don't mean when the shot was released but rather when the shot cleared the net.

Did you tell the coach you were now on Daylight Savings Time and he should have had his arms at 11 and 3 o'clock?

One of the replays that was shown, they showed the shot clock graphic superimposed beside the rim. It appeared to me that approximately 1.1 was showing when it cleared the basket. I did not ever see a stop action shot the showed the clock and ball clearing the basket. If that was shown on other coverage then I was wrong. nbd
