Thumbs up Correctable Errors

Here is how I remember if it is "Correctable or Not"...
Rule 2-10
Art. 1...Officials may correct an error if a rule is inadvertently set aside and results in:
a. Failure to award a merited free throw.
b. Awarding an unmerited free throw.
c. Permitting a wrong player to attempt a free throw.
d. Attempting a free throw at the wrong basket.
e. Erroneously counting or canceling a score.

Notice there are only 5 correctable error situations and 4 of them have to do with free throws.
Just get the "recognized by an official during the first dead ball after the clock has properly started" or "before the second live ball."
The big thing to remember...4 of the 5 have to do with FTs.
