About thirty years ago, I did exactly that, yet, I remember it like it was yesterday. Only eight seconds had run off the clock after a made free throw. Coach was so upset that I had to charge him with a technical foul. In discussing it with my partner on the ride home, we figured out that I probably continued a five second throwin count and tacked it onto my ten second count. Apologized to the coach the next time I saw him. This was before we were encouraged to change hands when changing counts.
