Fix net or not?

Definitely do not stop the clock for it, anyway.

You just wait young man. One time during a lower level game, the net got stuck on a shot as the quarter ended. I figured I'd just jump up and pull it down. Alas, I had last tried that during my playing days, at least 3 years prior. Long story short, I came up about three inches short and embarrassed myself thoroughly.

But as to the original post...... the ball is dead once it goes through and I don't know how the trail could miss seeing that the net is stuck. Blow it dead before the ball is "available" to the throwing team.
