Last night I had the game from hell. It is a playoff game and one team goes home. I have done the girls game before and the table is terrible. I tell the boys coach that his table is terrible and that I don't want to hear a lot complaints about shot clock fouls game clock and other table related problems. At one point in the second half we have a player that has supposedly fouled out on the other team. I go to the bench and the table has 5 fouls but one is scratched out because the other coach told the table to do it and they did. We don’t know whether they recorded the T because they just put slashes for fouls. To make a long story short the distractions keep going with 3 or 4 stoppages in play to sort things out. On the 10th foul I award 2 shots I have been following the foul most of the way and they have been going up right I think. The player misses the first one and makes the second. The other team gets the ball and goes down and scores. The ball comes back and is checked out of bounds and the table then says that there is another mistake and it was only the ninth foul what do we do now.

Tell them thanks for the info, and go put the ball back in play...it's too late to correct the error...finish the game, get out of there and let your assignor/board know about the table crew so it can be discussed with the AD...

Oh boy, what a mess. Ever thought about removing the table crew and getting new people?

Rockyroad wasn't joking. That is exactly what you do.

What second dead ball? That's got nothing to do with how a correctable error is handled.

I think that you need to review the procedure. Pull out your rule book and read rule 2-10-2. You can't correct it after the first dead ball after the clock has properly started. That means that you could have corrected this play up to the ball become available to the team throwing it in after the first basket was made. That was the first dead ball. When that dead ball period is over, fuggedaboutit. You can't change anything.

You need to catch it at this point, before the ball is available for the throwin. Let's say A1 shot the free throws. B1 makes the basket, and A2 is going do the throw in following B1's basket.
The error must be caught before the ball is at A2's disposal. If it's caught there, you take away one point from A (for the erroneous free throw) and give A the ball for an endline throw in under B's basket (the point of interruption.)

Grant...

Jurassic's bang-on. You have until the first dead ball, then it's a moot point.

In your case, as JR said, forget about it. And do what you can to make sure that the next time that table crew sees a basketball game, their asses are in the stands, not at the score table.

BTW, lighten up a bit. These guys joke a lot, but they are an absolute bottomless well of information.

Chill out, dude.

Quite honestly, if you can't read the rule book and know the answer to that quesion, you probably shouldn't have been on the floor for a playoff game.

When I read this I said OOOOOHHHHH!!

Whenever I would ask my mentor a question, his reply would always be "what does the book say"! What I learned from that was, KNOW THE RULES!! You can't go wrong!
