Granting a Timeout

[Gargil]

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.

If he requests it before it's at the disposal and it takes me a second to verify it's him, I'm giving it to him. I've never had a problem telling the other coach, "he requested it before your guy started the throw in." They all know they'd get the same call.

This is the part where Nevada comes in with a nonsensical rebuttal.
