A mandated do-over; putting consumed time back on the clock
I'll willing admit that my eyes glaze over whenever the dreaded "do-over" topic comes up. We've picked those bones clean.
But while I was reseaching another topic, I came across this case:
A SPECIFIC UNSPORTING ACT
10.1.8 SITUATION: Immediately following a goal or free throw by Team A, A1 inbounds the ball to A2 and A2 subsequently throws the ball through A's basket. RULING: The following procedure has been adopted to handle this specific situation if it is recognized before the opponents gain control or before the next throw-in begins: (a) charge Team A with a technical foul; (b) cancel the field goal; (c) cancel any common foul(s) committed and any nonflagrant foul against A2 in the act of shooting; and (d) put “consumed” time back on the clock. COMMENT: If there is no doubt the throw-in was a result of confusion, the entire procedure would be followed except no technical foul would be charged. This procedure shall not be used in any other throw-in situation in which a mistake allows the wrong team to inbound the ball.
At least in the case where confusion led to the wrong team throwing in and scoring, it appears that the mandated "procedure" is a do-over.
Fair enough.
My actual question is this: are there any other situations where we would "put 'consumed' time back on the clock."? Obviously there are times where we put time back on because the clock wasn't stopped properly. But are there any others where the clock seemingly should be running and we put time back on as part of some correction?
