Replace it with "A2 did touch the ball while it was in the cylinder, but I thought it was legal".

Can't go back an call BI. Can't go back and call a violation.

Agree. However, could the officials discuss the play, and reverse the call, if the "action" had been stopped during the dead ball period subsequent to the field goal?

2-10 art.3

"If in article 1e the error is made while the clock is running and the ball dead, it must be recognized by an official before the second live ball."

Since this specifically references 1e-"Erroneously counting or canceling a score" Would this not apply?

2.10.1 SITUATION J:

(a) A1; or (b) B1 commits basket interference at Team A’s basket. In (a), the referee erroneously counts the score; or in (b), fails to count it. In each case, the error is not discovered until the ball has become live following the dead ball during which the error occurred.

RULING: The official’s error in both (a) and (b) is still correctable.

By the way, remember that the following is the first line of the CE rule...Officials may correct an error if a rule is inadvertently set aside and results in...

In the OP, rule 7-1-2a-3 was set aside (The ball is out of bounds...when it touches or is touched by...the supports or back of the backboard).

This was my initial thoughts on it too.

In this case play, BI is called. The analogous situation for the OP would be if the trail official had called the ball OOB and the other official, oblivious to the call, informed the table (maybe they asked him because they were also oblivious) that the basket should count.

In the OP, the violation is not called. As others have stated, it's the same as going back and calling the travel or other violation later.

Example:
BC throwin, A2 takes the pass and dribbles towards the wrong basket. He picks up his dribble and shoots at the wrong hoop, misses, and moves to retrieve the rebound. He gets the rebound and shoots again, making the basket.

A coach requests a TO to correct a CE, knowing that the official should have called traveling on A2 and thus the score should not have counted.

There are any number of violations that could get missed because the calling official just didn't know the rule, you can't go back and call them later.

The number of violations that would/could also include a score are pretty scarce. Travelling for sure, possibly an OOB but unlikely, BI's by A or B, free throw violations.

With that said, travelling is going to be more likely a judgement call that someone says yes they did or no the didn't travel, if a coach asks "didn't they travel on that layup?" The response will normally be no or something to the effect of if they did I missed it. In either case there would be no clear evidence that a rule was inadvertently set aside. All of these violations can be found under rules 2 and 9. If someone inadvertently sets aside one of these rules, and it results in a score, then if discovered in the appropriate time frame, I believe it is indeed correctable.

A1 drives the lane and does a jump stop. From his jump stop, he pivots, placing the foot back on the floor before jumping for a dunk. The covering official sees this, but doesn't call the travel because he doesn't know the rule prohibits pivoting after a jump stop.

After A1 scores, B coach requests a CE timeout. After getting together with his partners, the official realizes he set aside a rule and a score was thus counted that shouldn't have. Are you going to say this is a CE?

A1 dribbling in his backcourt, just before the BC count gets to 10, he throws his pass towards a streaking teammate for an allyoop dunk. The official hits 10 on his count well before A2 catches the pass, but doesn't make the call because he doesn't know the rule. This is the last play before half time.

Can they correct this and disallow the basket, wiping off the two points, when they return to the court?

There are plenty of violation calls that could be missed strictly because the covering official doesn't know the rule. This is not what the rule is intended to cover.

Why is no one doing the obvious...

fire the scorekeeper who laid on the buzzer solely because coach asked them to!

Not necessarily. The HC wanted a TO because he thought a CE had occurred. The Timer notified the Game Officials at the appropriate time. Since there was no CE, then the HC's team is charged with a TO.

Good examples.

Basically, what you're saying (and what I agree with) is that the rule that is set aside that results in an error is only referring to scoring rules (legal shot or not a legal shot, FTs earned but not awarded or FTs awarded but not earned, how much a shot should be worth or not, etc), not violation or timing rules.

The rule that is set aside has to directly related to the scoring, not coincidentally lead to the score.

Illegal dribble.

Think like a referee. If you don't call traveling, you didn't see traveling, and there is no traveling, so that will never be corrected because it's never wrong.

More likely, you call traveling and your partner signals count the basket that followed. You both realize the mistake at the next dead ball.

Or you might see the ball go through the hoop on an untouched throw in and you are running back down the court but your partner - who saw nothing - let the players take the ball out, has let the score stand, and the coach has gone to the table for a time out to correct the error.

Or a player taps in at the wrong hoop, and there is an off ball foul while the ball is in the air and you mistakenly count the basket like it's a legit shot or tap. During the free throw you realize your mistake.

But you're not going to correct for missing traveling - or double dribble, or foul, or 5 or 10 seconds, or jump, ever, because we get them all, every time. That's what we do
