Can foul be called with 0:00?

Clause... get it? Claus!

re: irish presidents... 11/22 and prior was an excellent chance to get education about our last freckled redheaded president, what happened to him and how the world really works. I'll just leave it at that.

You, or your partner, look up at the scoreboard to see 0:00:05, which keeps running down until the horn sounds. Reset the clock to 0:00:05, report the personal foul, and let A2 shoot free throws, with rebounders on the lane lines, if Team A is in the bonus. Obviously, the half has not ended yet, you still have 0:00:05 to play. And in a similar situation, if there had been only 0:00:03 on the clock, then players would not have time to take a shot (try), but would only have time to tap the ball in the remaining time.

by 0:00:05 I think you mean 0:00.5. A half a second. And yes the situations you describe all make complete sense. Yesterday I had free-throws with .3 remaining. Was fully aware that we could only have a basket on the rebound if tipped. FT was made, ball inbounded... I get to two on my backcourt count before I had to blow the whistle and end play. Lets just say my table crew for the game was not top notch!!
