The ball is inbounded on the end line after a made basket. You have a fresh 30 second shot clock.
As the team brings the ball up in the backcourt you have a seven second count on the dribbler. The defense is pressing the dribbler in the backcourt.You take a quick glance at the shot clock and see that it has not started what is the best call for an official to make or not make at this moment. I look forward to you replies
IMO at this point it doesn't make sense to stop play. Give the defense a shot at getting the 10 second violation, once the ball is over the mid court line blow it dead & adjust the shot clock. And keep a better eye on the table.
