In a game played this past week a last second's shot got lodged in the basket resulting in a jump ball. The officials went to the replay to determine how much time was left on the clock when the ball lodged. They looked at the replay and it showed that the ball lodged at let's say 1.9 sec. and put 1.9 seconds back on the clock. There was no time allowed for the reaction time of the officials or the timekeeper in reguards to this violation and stopping the clock. Is this proper protocal?

It's the way it's generally done in the NCAA, yes.
By rule /case in HS, if the clock was stopped at .9 or greater, it would be left where it stopped. If it stopped at .8 or less (or ran out) it would be reset to 1.9 (and, of course, no TV replay would be used in HS to determine the time).
