Hmmm, good point. I would say that AR 9 deals with a situation where the officials didn't realize the error was being made. But if I know that the ball is dead, but can't get to it before the brain-dead kid in the low block grabs it and outlets it, I'm fixing the situation (I think). Does that make sense?

In AR 9, the refs let it go until the other team scored a basket; so they clearly didn't realize their own mistake. Can't penalize the team for that. But if we realize it, and it's only their mistake, we should fix the players' (and timer's) mistake.

How's that? You buyin' it?
