The NBA uses Precision Time(not Timing). The officials on the floor are responsibile for starting the clock when the ball is touched. How can they arbitrarily decide before the play even ocurs, that they are not going to count a catch turn and shoot? The elastic rule does not allow any of us to throw out an existing rule.
I'd be interested to hear from Drake or Eli on this one. Help us understand guys!

I don't mean to sound whinny but I do think that these are the rules references that one would look at in deciding if the officials actions were correct. I do agree with your comments concerning the Precision Timing and how the officials can arbigrarily decide before the play even occurs.
