Verbalizing why you are granting the time-out in these types of situations clears up a lot of confusion.
Sure, if you choose not to follow the rules.

"Time-out ... three possessions ago."
"Time-out ... back in the 2nd quarter."

Yeah, just explain it. Just wonderful.

I missed anywhere in this thread where someone talked about granting times-out from 3 possessions ago or from a previouis quarter. Can you please point me to that post so I can on the same Bizarro topic you are apparently on.

Guess you have a problem in Nevada with officials lacking common sense and sticking to reality. Not a problem in Virginia. Must be a regional thing.
