Two things here, Coach. First, we can add time when we have definite knowledge of the time that elapsed. I know that at least .1 seconds elapsed. Therefore, I can put that time back on the clock. Since I'm physically unable to put .1 on the shot clock, the best I can do is to put 1 second on the clock. Therefore, one second is going back up on the clock.

Secondly, as I said before, anything having to do with the shot clock is NOT covered by FED rules. Therefore, I can legitimately use 2-3 to do the right thing. The right thing here is NOT to penalize a violation that didn't occur.
