Timing issue?
Observing a high school game last night. 3 excellent officials. They called a backcourt violation off the tip. 7:56 on the clock. They go up and down for 2 possessions. On the 3rd possession, one of the officials notices that the clock hasn't moved. They get together and call both coaches to the table and decide to set the clock at 7:30.
I go in after the game to congratulate them, so I just asked. "How did you decide on 7:30?" The R told me that they did not have a clue as to the time that should have expired. So, he got both coaches to agree on the 7:30 OR they could continue play from the 7:56 mark.
My question to you guys; Would you have taken this common sense approach or would you have just stayed within the rule?
