Correctable Error - Situation?
Player A1 is fouled by B2.
Team A inbounds the ball and during their possession Team B steals a pass and drives to the other end and scores. Team A inbounds the ball and as they are bring the ball up court the table sounds the horn and lets the officials know that the previous foul by B2 was the 7th team foul and A1 should have been awarded a 1&1 bonus freethrow. Is this a correctable error? Was it “caught” within the correct timeframe? How would it be enforced. |
It is a correctable error, however no it was not caught in time. A retains possession of the ball for a throw in.

It is not within the allowed time period to correct. The reason is that once Team B scored, that was the first dead ball after the error and that would have been the time limit when you could have corrected it. Once Team A inbounded the ball, it was too late to correct. I know this because it bit me in the ass last year...

Change of possession so we know we are going POI. Free throws are done with no one on the line. Step: 1) Foul was called 2) Error was made 3) Ball was made live(properly started) 4) Errors must be recognized by officials no later than during the first dead ball after the clock is properly started. TL:DR(Kinda) One live ball. No second live ball. We can fix |

The enforcement would be to shoot the free throws with the lane cleared... resume play at point of interruption with Team A entitled to a throw in on the endline entitled to run the endline. correct?? |

You have until the ball becomes live AFTER the first dead ball AFTER the error was made. The made basket causes the ball to be dead (so would a violation or foul). However the ball then becomes live once "at the disposal" of the new offensive team. Say in your scenario I would be a bit liberal with "at the disposal" to fix an error. Your assessment is correct with how to adjudicate. |
