Time Out before Illegal Substitution

REPLY: mbcrowder...i do agree that you're technically correct. However, if faced with that situation, I would grant the TO and leave the flag in my pocket. The possibility of an advantage for the offending team is pretty much gone once they call the TO. And on top of that, they've disadvantaged themselves by having to call a worthless timeout-due-to-stupidity. Just MHO.

I can live with that, Bob. However, if you have laundry on the ground, you're not going to wave it off and grant the TO, are you?
