Sydney Called Two Timeouts Before The Final Minute

"The scoreboard was a little weird,Adelaide was team A but on the scorers table scoreboard it was listed as the second team which could be confusing "

Was this a light vs dark thing on the scoreboard? I know in junior basketball, many parents doing the scorebench are confused/bemused by the Team A/Team B thing and how it relates to the scoresheet and where each team sits. They prefer to go with singlet colour as the determinant.

So that means if the scoreboard shows Team A is light and Team B is dark, that's how they will do it, regardless of who Team A/B are on the scoresheet.

Why not? Lets you set something up in case of a miss on the second, and you're not going to have another opportunity to use it anyway.

Home team is always listed first, so I'm not sure why that would be. They'd know the score, too...

The one with 5.3 remaining is the only one they can have any case over.

@POP: That can't be right either, as they only called on TO in the third. Also seemed to point to the scoreboard when arguing, as though that said they had an extra.

For what it's worth, from my observation at the game, according to the [central] score board Sydney had one TO in hand at the start of the final quarter and the 36ERS had three.

Don't know why, but I clearly recall noticing it and thinking Sydney could be struggling if things got tight - as they did, remarkably.

Yes.

So if Sydney called the timeout with 5.3 remaining, which everyone seems to agree they did, that was their third and they were out of timeouts exactly when the bench said they were.

Otherwise, that timeout was called by Adelaide and erroneously given to Sydney, and they had a timeout remaining, but nobody seems to argue that. And given it'd happened so recently, it would've been easy to notice.

Additionally, the news articles claiming the Kings are filing a protest are saying Sydney were given a timeout when Adelaide changed their mind about calling one, which is definitely not what happened.
