yea, but everything in red is absolutely correct for the NBA which I referenced, even with the actual rule.

What's in blue, again with viewing the context in which it was wriiten is correct. Read the example that follows.

I could write my own rulebook, and it be better than Fed.

No, it's not. The NBA officials don't "guesstimate." They have replay monitors to determine exactly how much time to put back on.

I think that they can only go to the monitor at the end of a period/game on a last-second shot, though.

I do agree that they don't just guess - they have VERY specific guidelines as to clock management.
