TIME OUT WITH NO TIME ON THE CLOCK

What's interesting about this is the follows:

The governing body for amateur basketball in Ontario is called Basketball Ontario. Every year, many centres host "sanctioned tournaments" which count towards Basketball Ontario standings and rankings. At the end of the basketball season, teams play in the Provincial finals, organized by the host city and Basketball Ontario.

The format for these sanctioned tournaments is a round-robin followed by single knockout. To break ties in the round-robin, points for and/or against are used. So, in the round-robin games, we actually have a tournament rule that all foul shots are to be taken, regardless if the win is already decided. The reason is that it may affect a team's points +/-.
