The NBA rule is (or was a few years ago) that the clock is stopped anytime the ball is not actually in play during the last minute of the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd quarters; or during the last 2 minutes of the 4th quarter or any overtime period.

So in the original play in question, if the basket was scored with 1:02 showing and the throw-in had not been completed before 1:00 (assuming 1st, 2nd or 3rd quarter), the timer would stop the clock at 1:00 until the throw-in was completed.
