I can't believe they would want to enforce that against a team which is trying to consume time. Can the time deduction be declined?

Yes, it can be declined. Just like in the NFL.

Yes, the offended team has the option accept the time deduction or not.

chyme, jeepers creepers! Sounds like somebody took the basketball rule (3 fulls, 2 20s) and went wild with it.

I can't believe they'd change a fundamental commonality between all rule sets. Weird.

I heard they're giving 5 timeouts in baseball next season, too. It's true, it's true.

Then I guess you like to make assumptions not grounded in fact.
