Dan - I'll agree with your saying there should not be a do-over, but would you actually be counting a ten second back court when there's only 4.some seconds left to play? Maybe this is something I should be doing for clock management skills, I dunno !

I still like Chuck's answer. If you stroll to the table with confidence and say "I know the bucket was good, three seconds ticked off - put 1.2 on the clock," I think you gain a little credibility by having some presence of mind to know what the heck was going on when the clock screws up.
I used to be in the school of thought that under ten, don't count. But, I got bit in a case like this, so now I count all the time. Plus, if they see you counting, it is easier to sell Chucks' call.
