I was just curious as to why the rules committee for FIBA wouldn't want players calling a time out.

For some reason, I had always pictured you just a little older looking.

If I did that, I'd lose 150 pounds!

BTW - that photo actually is of Old School! It was taken during one of his pre-game meetings prior to working a pre-school game.

It's all about keeping the flow of the gameand probably a few other small details. No need for stopping the game if a player is close to a 5 second count either on a throw in or on the court. There is no second guessing if the Coach called for a time out or the dreaded 5 out.

Thats the explanation I know.
