Well, "guess" is pretty harsh, but essentially, yes. You go through the play and come up with the best approximation you can.
Example: Team B-52, Team A-51. 4.0 seconds remain.
A1 throws it into A2, who takes 3 dribbles, and passes to A3. A3 takes another two dribbles, shot fakes, goes up, and gets fouled in the act of shooting.
Clock still says 4.0. We are idiots and never realized the clock did not start.
NFHS ruling- shoot two with 4.0 on the clock.
NCAA-W ruling- determine how much time should have come off of the clock and adjust it accordingly. If it is more than 4.0 (and in this case it sounds like it probably was), game over. B wins. Drive home safely.
I can not speak for the NCAA-M ruling.
