This is similar to the 5 second closely-guarded violation, no?
Does that make sense?

You're correct in red, but not in blue. You never suspend a 5 second closely guarded. You'll either continue counting or terminate and start over. Just because a player is advancing with the ball does not mean a 5 second count should be stopped.
