It is a simple question and we are having a hard time finding a clear line.

If I use a DOG in a tight game with seconds left does the book clearly want a DOG to help the defense or with our judgement could it be something more. Honestly I wish we had more insight as I bet this happens more then we realize or hear about.

Players intentionally touch the ball after a made basket all the time and we call a delay. There is nothing in the rule book to change this rule until the final five seconds of the game.
