Granting a Timeout
I was watching a boys V game last night. The coach of Team A was trying to call a timeout after a basket by Team B. The T official stopped play after team B inbounded the ball and asked the L if the timeout was called (recognized) prior to the inbound pass. The L said no, so they had Team B throw in on the end line without granting the timeout. Once they stopped play wouldn't they have to then grant the timeout?

That makes no sense. I think you are assuming some facts not in evidence or you are incorrectly describing the events.

Edit: You meant team "B", in which case, once they stopped play, they should then grant team B a timeout. Last edited by Indianaref; Fri Mar 05, 2010 at 10:56am. |

Team A was "requesting the timeout after their made basket and prior to the ball being at the disposal of team B. There was no possesion by eaither team, the ball was bouncing near the end line waiting for team B to begin their throw in attempt when the Coach of Team A was requesting the timeout, the T stopped play after it was inbounded (team B possesion) and communicated with the the L regarding the timeout. They did not grant the timeout and gave team B a throw in at the end line. I thought that once they stopped play the timeout should be granted.

One of my favorite scenarios is when a coach requests a timeout when they're not entitled to one and the official grants it and that team was out of timeouts.

The Team A coach was requesting the timeout before the ball was at the disposal of Team B thrower. The Official blew the whistle after the ball was in Team B's possesion. So I think they should have ignored the request by Coach A, but since they stopped play they should have went ahead and granted the timeout.

I originally interpreted the scenario as, "T stops play to converse with partner, not to grant timeout," as ludicrous as that whistle would be. Regardless, the timeout should have been granted.
