Shot Clock Screw-up In One Point Game

[mlancast]

You have definitive reason enough to make a ruling on this.....I'd rule it a shot clock violation and put 8 seconds on the clock. In this case you know that the violation occurred at the 8 second mark.

A similar situation I had in a women's college game last week:

Team A brought the ball downcourt, passed it around a while, and took a shot which came off of the backboard, but drew no iron. A2 got the rebound, dribbled out on the baseline, and I noticed the shot clock at 26 seconds. Obviously it had been erroneously reset after the missed shot. Fortunately, the clock operator knew that the shot clock showed 3 seconds when he reset it to 30. With the 26 secs showing, obviously a violation had occurred. Set the clock to 30 and give the ball to B for inbound.
