Count the bucket, report the foul, put time back on the clock, shoot 1, players on the lane.

We're always making what we know are partial adjustments:
Clock doesn't start, we have 6 seconds of a BC count, followed by a gap, followed by 3 seconds of a 5 second count, then we notice. We'll take off 9 seconds, even though we know more probably elapsed.
This makes me less uncomfortable putting, at minimum, .1 second on the clock if I have definite knowledge the foul was before the horn.
