So you're saying that if the defense kicks the ball, the shot clock isn't reset?

a kicked ball, ball struck with a fist, injured player on the defence (including lost contact lens) are all shot clock resets. I was trying to keep it as simple as possible for moose seeing as he's never worked with a shot clock.

Basically they only times that the shot clock will not reset and the offence keeps the ball is if...
- the defence knocks the ball out of bounds
- there is an AP situation and the offence keeps the ball
- there is a timeout called
- the offence is assessed a Technical Foul.

There are a couple of more cases where the team is control keeps the ball but does not get a reset on the clock (i.e. double foul) but I think that these are the 4 ones to remember.
