TO but shot clock shows 24

[crosscountry55]

With the new mechanic for using the shot clock vice a visible count, this actually makes a great case play. The NCAA should adopt it.

So what if the official doesn't have knowledge of a lapse. TO is called, you look up and see "24." Do you call the violation and give the coach the option to take the timeout back?

Probably not. I'm guessing not calling the violation is simply a non-reviewable official's error?

In the NBA the count is not reset following a timeout, correct? Or is this moot because the ball is advanced to the division line? I stink at NBA rules.

NBA does not reset the 8 second count.

I believe the NBA only advances for a TO called (1) before the ball is inbounded after a basket, or (2) called immediately upon gaining possession in the backcourt [most commonly on a FT rebound at end game].

I think it is a case play (or interp) in NCAAW. Either the TO request came in time, so reset the shot clock to 21, or it's late and a violation. Must be decided immediately.

....

Without the information provided by the slot, by rule a 10 second violation would be called, 1 second added back to the game clock, and Team A would have a choice to rescind the timeout.

And there is a relevant case play on the Men's side, A.R. 208.
