Bart Tyson...sorry buddy,stop guessing
Ref0909 has it right, however there is more.
On all shots the shot clock resets when the ball strikes the ring.
If the shot clock sounds BEFORE the ball has struck the ring the official must blow the whistle. If the ball goes in the defensive team get ball on baseline.(allowed to run) If the ball doesn't go in.(even if it hits the ring). The official should award the defensive team the ball on the baseline.(designated spot)
something else
If the shot-clock sounds in error without a team in control of the ball, a jump ball should be called.
Play... A1 takes a shot with 3 seconds left on the shot-clock, the ball strikes the ring and bounces away from the ring. The shot-clock doesn't reset (opperator error). The shot-clock horn then goes off, with the rebound not controled by either team.
ruling...Jump ball

This interpretation comes from Fred Horgan, Canada's National Interpretor and member of the FIBA Technical Commission.
