Aside from the thread's digressions, I appreciate everyone who offered an opinion.
I like Zebraman's answer the best. It's not going to be pretty, so I would be willing to take the heat for the right reason, being aware of the count either hand-counting or mentally, score the basket if it went before when time should have expired. At least you can hang your decision on the rule, cause as we all know, one team ain't going to be happy.
I'd rather take heat by adhering to the rule than by not being aware of the clock as well as I should have. That was inexscusible and believe me, won't happen again.
Again, thanks for the opinions.
