"bast"
Man, that's priceless.
I have a new one for you, Bktbllref, that you probably hear often -- pedantic. (Feel free to check my spelling, I didn't look it up, so it could be incorrect.)
Anamalous is the exactly correct word. It's incongrous, paradoxical, irregular, unusual. It makes no sense.
I never suggested the play was called incorrectly under the rule. I was asking whether I understood the rule correctly, and if I did, whether it was a sound rule. I'm still not seeing any justification for it, other than the feasibility problem, which is surely a problem but if it's the best anyone can cite kind of proves my point.
So, if you can get past any possible spelling errors in this post, maybe go back to the original question, which I think is a good one. Can someone articulate a purpose for the rule that is not undermined by the fact that a basket scored with more time in the game (e.g., 1:01) will lead to less game play than a basket scored with less time in the game (e.g., 59.9)? Maybe there is one. I can't think of one. That's why I posted.
