And we have 30 seconds for girls and 35 for boys...not that big of a deal.

Not a big deal on the hijacking...thankfully it wasn't my plane.

I deliberately held off any comment so that I did not taint the jury pool to see what the responses would be like.

What happened was the L official noticed the reset on the catch/kick out and as the clock hit 34 started to blow the play dead for the improper reset of the shot clock. Did not anticipate the catch and shoot. Once we got the situation corrected, the visiting coach said thanks for doing the right thing, the home coach did not get mad (it was his clock operator). They still scored on the possession.

The options we discussed:
Inadvertent Whistle - count the 3 and move on,
Definite knowledge of time on shot clock - neither outside official knew how much time was left when shot was taken,
Give the ball back to white with 11 seconds - shot clock has recall option.
