In the final seconds of overtime Team A scores to go ahead by two, as the basket is made team B calls timeout. The crew determines the clock should have stopped with 2.6 seconds remaining. The head official goes to the table and asks the timer to reset the clock to 2.6. The timer states "I can't. I can only reset to 2 or 3 seconds." They reset to 3 seconds. Was this correct??
Let me clearify, the clock had tenths of seconds on it, that is how they knew 2.6, however, the clock itself for whatever reason could only be reset to a whole number of 2 or 3.
