Personally, I believe that the use of video replay has greatly reduced the skill of officiating. People have become too reliant on the technology and don't do the little things that used to be done on the court.

I would argue just the opposite. The use of video has forced officials to be better than ever. The level of scrutiny has never been higher. I would argue that the percentage of correct calls is higher than it has ever been in the NBA.

This isn't a reduction of skill. They rushed and no one caught it. NBA officials are very, very good but they're also human.

I saw this online in an NCAA game this past season and I know the officials involved. I felt bad for them but it *was* kind of funny watching the camera pan slowly into the frontcourt to reveal the defense playing a...3...3...zone

What does replay have to even do with this play? Officials still count 5 and 5 regardless of replay or not. It's not as if there's a replay trigger in the NBA that covers this.

It doesn't. And why I responded the way I did when I read the comments (but they were deleted).

Video has made officiating much better and people do not guess like they used to without realizing there is video tape to show the play.

I'm just curious, can "correctable errors" be corrected after the clock reaches 0.0? In NCAA they can't...

This particular error isn't correctable at the NCAA level. Might be soon, but I don't think you can make this error correctable without allowing it to be corrected after the clock expires.

Adam corrected me on my correctable errors post, too many men isn't correctable in NCAA. Still doesn't answer my NBA question though.

Anything that fits within the C.E. definition is correctable as long as the correctable time frame hasn't expired. Whether time has expired is immaterial.

CE's in the 4th quarter must be discovered and rectified prior to the end of the period.

Does the end of the period in the NBA mean time expiring or until the officials approve the final score? Is the period really over at 0:00 or later?
