Same logic.....

Try reading 6-7, JR, as already posted in this thread. There's a rule for the PC stating that the ball is dead at the time of the foul.

If you are going to criticize, you may wish to get your rules straight.

And rule 5-8-1 says that time-out occurs and the clock, if running, shall be stopped, when an official signals a foul, NOT at the time of the foul.

You might try looking at all the rules, not just the ones convenient to your purpose.

And yes, the rule book verbiage used isn't very good either. But I still can't believe that the intent of the rulesmakers is for us to hear a request, check to see if the request is from a coach or player, and then check again to make sure that the request is still legal before granting that TO request. That makes no sense at all. And you sureasheck would never see those quick TO requests granted when a player is laying on the court with the ball and a coach is asking for a TO trying to avoid a held ball.

Well it wasn't the same poster that gave another poster sh!t about his inane comments about 8 minutes after he himself made an inane comment.

He'd never do that.
