The Official Forum - 24 Seconds & End of time Posted by ref1bal on Nov 9th, 2003 07:03 AM I would like to know, if the offense starts 26 seconds before the end of the quarter and the ball is released from the hand, the 24 seconds devices sounds and then the game time sounds and then the ball touches nothing (Airball). I would like to know, if the offense starts 26 seconds before the end of the quarter and the ball is released from the hand, the 24 seconds devices sounds and then the game time sounds and then the ball touches nothing (Airball). Is the game time to be reset to 2 seconds because the team has commited a 24 seconds violatin or game ends. www.officialforum.com /printthread.php?threadid=10764

column Adding 8 minutes to each game and switching to the 24-second shot clock will increase the scoring by about 20 points per team per game. If the league changes to a 48-minute game and uses a 24-second shot clock that would increase the amount of possessions in a game up to 120 possessions. Aside from the in-game clock changes that I have suggested there are other changes that I believe would help the league that have to do with presentation. www.geocities.com /furballmle/column.html

RealGM: Team Columns The events that took place in the final 24.8 seconds of regulation should open up some serious discussions as to how time is monitored during the last minute of a game where, especially in the playoffs, every tenth of a second is meaningful and should be accounted for. It took Brad Miller 0.7 seconds once he secured the rebound off the Chauncey Billups miss to call a timeout bringing the shot clock down from 24 to 23.3 seconds and the game clock from 24.8 to 24.1 seconds. Not a full twenty-four seconds on the shot clock, but 23.3 seconds for Indiana to get the shot off which explains why both game and shot clocks were out of sync in the final seconds of the game. www.realgm.com /src_prev_detroit_column.php?columnid=422   (1125 words)

warriorsworld.net Forums: 50 years ago, the shot clock saved the NBA He eventually suggested 24 seconds, a calculation he arrived at, together with his general manager, Leo Ferris, based on dividing the average number of shots taken by both teams in a game, about 120, into the 2,880 seconds in a 48-minute game. Back in 1950, he was on the losing side in that 19-18 game, a record-low point total for the league. George touched the ball, but it went in and the game ended. forums.warriorsworld.net /main/msgs/763425.phtml   (1125 words)

NHL's all-star showcase is minus Dafoe today Comparing NHL all-star games in the past decade to regular season or Stanley Cup hockey is like comparing Ronald Reagan with Bill Clinton: They were both presidents and it stops there. The NHL All-Star Game also was dropped in 1987 for a similar series, the Rendez-Vous in Quebec City, again at the urging of Eagleson. Other all-star games were missed: 1966, when the team owners decided to move the game to mid-season but forgot to book a building; and 1995, when owners locked out the players and the schedule was reduced to a 48-game season. www.eagletribune.com /news/stories/19990124/SP_004.htm   (1716 words)

Shot clock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Danny Biasone came up with 24 seconds by dividing 2,880 (the number of seconds in a game) by 120 (the average number of shots in a game at that time). The sport most identified with the shot clock is basketball, although other sports have used one or are considering implementing one of their own to shorten the length of time needed to play the game to completion. When the shot clock first came into play, it made many players nervous, to the extent that the clock hardly came into play, as players were shooting much quicker than twenty seconds. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Shot_clock   (211 words)

Schayes remembers when shot clock was born - - MSNBC.com The 24-second shot clock made its NBA debut on Oct. 30, 1954, with the Rochester Royals defeating the Boston Celtics 98-95. Since each league game lasts 48 minutes, or 2,880 seconds, that total divided by 120 equals 24. The clock’s history also is included in the biography for Biasone, a Hall of Famer who owned the Syracuse Nationals and was one of the NBA’s founding members. www.msnbc.msn.com /id/5652455   (227 words)

NBA.com: History of the Shot Clock Biasone chose the unusual number of 24 seconds by figuring that the average number of shots two teams would take during a game was 120. During the first season with the 24-second clock, NBA teams averaged 93.1 points per game, an increase of 13.6 points per game over the previous season. If a team does not attempt a field goal within 24 seconds of gaining possession of the ball, a violation is committed and possession is awarded to the other team. www.nba.com /analysis/00422949.html   (227 words)

Online Sports Betting - NBA 24 - Second Shot Clock But if anything could overshadow the departure of the game's greatest player, it was the adoption of the 24-second clock and an accompanying limit on the number of fouls a team could commit in a quarter. With Mikan gone, the opportunity was never better for Syracuse, and the Nationals won what would prove to be their only championship in that city, defeating Fort Wayne in seven games. Syracuse owner Danny Biasone and his GM, Leo Ferris, came up with the shot clock idea, which along with the team foul limit, created the pro basketball game we know today www.betcasinosportslinks.com /sports_betting_info/basketball/clock_rescues_league.htm   (227 words)
