Is the timeout in the NBA game called casually?

Basically, in normal time, each team has two 20-second pauses and six long pauses in the first half and one in the second half. There were two formal suspensions in the first and third quarters, and three formal suspensions in the second and fourth quarters. This means that if the two parties talk for a long time instead of suspending, then there is no need to formally suspend the call. The first and third quarters are officially suspended. The first quarter is for the home team and the second quarter is for the visiting team. If the visiting team calls the first one, the second one will be given to the home team. There are two suspensions before the second and fourth quarters. The first formal suspension does not count as any team. The second and third suspension rules are the same as those in the first and third quarters, which refer to the situation that neither side has announced a suspension.

Of course, this situation is rare. So when is it usually called a timeout? It really depends on the coach. When the opponent plays well and reaches the climax of the attack, or when one of the players feels very hot, tell him to calm down and arrange tactical response. Of course, some coaches don't like to call a time-out. Phil just doesn't like it. Pause and let the player solve the problem by himself. Of course, this technique is usually not used by coaches.

Pause has another very important function. Let the team rest first, then rest. The rest time in the third and fourth quarters is actually only 130 seconds. Then, the formal long pause will last 100 second. For professional athletes, this period of time is enough for them to catch their breath, and some paused physical recovery is another important role. One person can replace 20 seconds. The last two minutes are infinite. Long pause does not limit the number of exchanges. Generally speaking, at the beginning of the second and fourth quarters, they are all substitutes, giving the main players more rest time. And get them back to the battlefield. Generally speaking, in the first or second long pause of the fourth quarter, the main players will play. Sometimes the first and third long pauses will also choose to let the star players take a break first.
