Why no time out?

Hmm. I thought the intitial post was making a diferent point: a lot of people hate the falling out of bounds TO (and if memory serves, the NBA abolished it). I thought the poster was suggesting that granting the TO, whether it was soon enough or not, would increase the risk of the play and make players more hesitant to try it and risk losing the ball and the TO. (Personally, I like the FIBA rule . . .)
