When a technical foul has occured prior to the jump ball, the game is to considered to have started with the action that was deemed a technical foul, therefore the game has already started...
MTD,
I would very much like to see something written down that says this. I do not believe that this is correct. Until proven otherwise, I will maintain that the game/1st Quarter begins when the ball first becomes live for the technical FTs as stated in 5-5-6.

Of course, if I am right about when the game begins then there can't be any incoming substitutes because there aren't any players to replace.
