Player throws the ball towards his basket and horn goes off while ball is clearly in the air.
So partner has timer reset clock and we do it again.

Common sense wise this was the right move.
Rule book wise I believed we were okay in that we had definite knowledge of how much time to put back on the clock, 1 sec. So i thought we were on solid ground.

Any other opinions on we handled this ?

sigh...you would think more people would exhibit the holiday spirit this time of year...
