Correctable

You're correct....bad example play...here is a better one to demonstrate the point...

Example: A1 is fouled by B1 with 8 team fouls but is awarded a throw in. Before the throwin ends, B3 is fouled with 10 team fouls on A. B3 takes 1 FT. The table informs the officials of the error. Stop. Put A1 on the line for 1+1 with no one on the lane, then come back and finish B3's 2nd FT with players on the lane.

Right, and if the officials mistakenly correct this by letting B3 finish his 2nd before lining everyone up and shooting A1's shots, it's not a C.E.

Why isn't it? It is still within the proper timeframe? They've just made a correctable error twice on the same penalty (letting B3 shot once, then twice, both without giving A1 the shots due).

Or are you saying the order itself isn't a correctable error? That would be true, but the correctable error is the FTs that are due to A1 but not yet taken (not the order). They're correctable until they're shot or until the time limits expire....shooting them after B3 shoots is the correction.

I agree with Cameron on this one. Since the clock never starts it doesn't matter how many free throws are shot before the correction does it??

The error is failure to award merited free throws. That error occurs when the officials proceed to other action.

If I discovered the error in between two free throws for a T, I'd do just what the OP did, and for the same reason. Since their rectification of the error took place within the prescribed time frame, I don't think it violated the rule.

In most cases rectifying the error should take place immediately, but the rule doesn't actually require that.

I meant that if they correct in the wrong order, that correction isn't correctable.
