Officials' Time-out signal and mechanic

Granted I used an example, but you missed the premise that you cannot JUST grant a time out to a coach because they requested that.
this is what this thread is about NOT my example. Did I miss something?

Timeout is to be granted in HS rules.

And when the coach of Team B gets in your a$$ don't compound the mistake by whacking him/her

I was correcting your teminology, because it's an important distiction. Threads veer slightly off topic all the time here, so it's normal to expand on someone's thought to make sure it is clarified. In fact, this particular thread was already off topic by the time you posted the team control reference.

Using the term "team control" in reference to granting a timeout just isn't correct.

Depends. Admit your mistake, and tell him it has to be granted now. "Sorry coach, I blew it but we have to grant the TO now."

If he doesn't drop it there, I'm willing to ring him up.

No doubt, but I've seen officials go directly to the ringing up & never thought to say "sorry coach."

Granted. I should put more thought when I use an example. Your point is well taken

I've done it a couple hundred times myself. Nevada usually corrects me.

Ooh. Ouch. Sorry is the first thing out of my mouth if the other coach is so much as looking me when I report the TO. Normally, they don't care. The only time they say anything is towards the end of the game; and I've never seen "sorry" not difuse the situation immediately.

So when the Lead is bouncing the ball to the free throw shooter.......

Essentially, the ball is not dead and the coach can request a TO. You grant it at this point.

I did and you are correct

Reference Situation 5.8.3.E .

Touche.
"or at the disposal of." Also applies to the thrower on a throwin.

Yeah, I had it coming. Especially in this thread.

Now shut up.

But if the lead is bouncing the ball at that moment, it is not yet at the disposal of the shooter/thrower. It only becomes at the disposal when it reaches the shooter/thrower (or when the ball is placed on the floor at the spot).

If it hasn't reached the thrower, and therefore is not at the thrower's disposal, then the ball is dead and the TO may be granted.
