I just emailed to you the information that you requested.

Based upon your latest reply, it is obvious that you did not read R5-S10-A1. The CbP 5.10.1.C is not similar to our play. Read R5-S10-A1!

It strikes me as odd that you have not commented on the secondary play that I listed in my Item (1). Is it because my play and the play being discussed in the thread are really the same type of play with the only difference being the amount of time on the game clock?

Good night all.

Mark, try all you like, but I fully understand what is going on in all of the case plays under 5.10.1 situations A-E and in 5.10.2.

Situations A, B, D, E and 5.10.2 are all TIMERS errors, where the official CORRECTLY signaled the clock to start or stop and the timer IGNORED the signal.

Situation C is not a timer's error, it is an official's error which is why it is NOT correctable, definite information has NOTHING to do with the ruling in 5.10.1.C.

Our 2.8 second play is ALSO an officials error.

As for moving it to 2:56:

You can't fix it, so the basket is good and the time is what it is because of an official's error.

There is no compelling reason to invoke 2-3 in this play because the official's error has not ended the game.

It does not fall under a timer's error, so fixing the clock is not an option.
