The clock malfunctioned with 9 sec remaining. Anything after should have been canceled. Cal ball with 9 sec on shot clock! RIDICULOUS!
I read it in two ways, and that is one of them.
The other would be that "The malfunction or mistake may only be corrected in the shot clock period in which it occurred" says the foul stands because the shot clock period is already over when the offense shoots or is fouled.
In no way whatsoever in any kind of interpretation would it have a meaning of what happened. Where does it instruct them to time the play to see if it lasted longer than what the shot clock would have done? The refs made that freaking thing up.
It's easier to see this in football with the playclock, but there I think the NFL would either: stop and make teams play over from the exact time of the malfunction. Or if the snap is off, and no one catches the error, the result counts. In no case would they give the team the other ball because the offense exceeded the non working play clock.
Goddamn refs.
Also, is the timer/scorekeeper provided by the home team or the conference? I thought that guy was wearing a P12 shirt. (Doesn't matter for this, but curious)
