As a soccer guy, this reminded me of how teams will return possession of the ball to the opposing team following it being put out of play for an injury.
Soccer has a tradition of the players restoring the balance of play when something goes amiss.

I've often wondered why basketball teams didn't do something similar to restore the previous situation when the administration of the game got messed up.
