Sure, but the book is still the official score. It would be the official time, too, if there was a way to do it.

To answer your question, they yell because they see it and they think it's official. They also think it's illegal to dribble high and catch your own air ball, that doesn't mean they're right.

And coaches don't yell at the table in my games.
Technically, the scorer can be the timer.

Get the scorer a couple of stopwatches (one for game clock, another as a TO/Intermission timer).
