I like how the NBA handles this....a team can only "waste" 24 seconds by rule if there's a shot clock violation.
EX: Team A has the ball to start the 2nd Q. They shoot the ball at 11:37. Team A's try does not hit the rim and a violation is call at 11:34.
Ruling: Shot clock violation. The officials will reset the clock to 11:36.

Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, given a chance to climb, they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions.
Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
