Larks, how do you get 40 minutes of basketball, plus halftime, into 40 actual minutes? Even if you run the clock for the entire game, you have to have at least a couple minutes for halftime, right? To get it all into 40 minutes, you'd have to actually change the time left on the clock at some point, right? Is that what you mean by "tweak" the clock? When it gets down to 12:00, you stop it and reset it for 10:00?

Chuck
You can do that (I have done it), and you can let the clock run during timeouts, too. Plus, tweak it to start the 2nd half.

I don't recommend it if you are reffing in the "Sopranos" league, however.
