I was working a rec game a few weeks ago that came down to the wire. Maybe 3 seconds left, B down by 3 points.
We had a bonus situation for team A, and I administered the 1-1.
The shot was missed, and a team B player rebounded.
And all ten players stood still, thinking there was another shot.
Unfortunately, the timer didn't start the clock, either.
We stood there for a while and finally the guy with the ball realized that I wasn't moving. I actually found the whole situation funny, since these were high school alumni teams who spent the whole day trying to tell me how to officiate (I only gave out three technicals
). Finally, the timer started the clock and the game ended. Very anticlimactic.
