[OKREF]

Playoff game, not mine but this did happen.

Team A is up by 1.

2 man mechanics.

Clock running in 4th quarter. Loose ball. Officials have a held ball. Clock stops with 0.4 seconds left. Immediately after the held ball whistle, team B calls time out and A1 runs to opposite end of court and jumps up and grabs the rim, thinking the game was over and they won. Does not pop the rim. Arrow is pointing to team A.

Team B coach wants a technical foul. Neither official saw it happen. During the time out they go to scorers table and ask, nobody saw it. After the time out they goe to A1 and ask him if he grabbed the rim, player says yes.

They give him a technical foul, B makes both free throws and wins by 1.

I'm simply telling the coach that I didn't see it and moving on, any thoughts?
