Dennis, look at what you stated and how it would apply to other times.

You said that when the clock read 25, there's actually 25.1 to 25.9 seconds on the clock.

If that's true, then when the clock reads 35, there would have to be 35.1 to 35.9 seconds on the clock.

Also, if there's 25.1 to 25.9 on the clock, what does the clock show when they're are actually 25.0 seconds on the clock? You're saying that the clock shows 26 when there's 26.0 on the clock but it shows 24 when there's actually 25.0 on the clock. That doesn't make sense.

These clocks aren't soley 35 second clocks. The clock registers the time the same at 35 as it does at 25. If the clock is at 35.0 seconds when it's displaying 35, then it's at 25.0 seconds when it's displaying 25. It can't work any other way. The only way it can work is the way Eli stated.

The clock stays at 35 until it ticks down to 34.1, then it ticks to 34.0 and the display shows 34. It's that simple.

BTW, NBA officials call an 8 seconds BC violation at 16 seconds, not 15 seconds. The clocks are the same as the college shot clocks.
