WHY WAS THE TIME CLOCK STARTED LATE FOR OLD ROY WITH 1.6 SECS LEFT IN THE GAME?

[TheAntiHawk]

Even with the clock starting late they didn't award the timeout until time had run out. So if he was looking at the clock thinking he had time to get to half court he still failed.

Agreed but how would we feel if Kane was dribbling up the court thinking he has time left when he looks up. We'd be ****** that the operator didn't start in time because he should be throwing up a shot.

I'm not saying the clock operators don't need to get it right, just that in this case it didn't matter because the guy took more than 1.6 seconds getting to half court and calling a timeout.

What at does this thread have to do with Iowa?

I think the clock operator expected UNC to call timeout right away after the basket. Regardless, UNC screwed up even dribbling the ball before calling a TO

That had to be the case. You'd think at some point coaching staff communicated to call time out after made bucket or players after a playing 30 games would know to call a time out in that situation. Seems like clock operator was on that page. It seemed like Roy somewhat owned up to that in his interview with Craig Sager.
