 Shot clock - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
It first came to use in 1954 in Syracuse, New York, where Danny Biasone, the owner of the NBA's Syracuse Nationals, experimented using a 24-second version during a scrimmage game.
Biasone then convinced the NBA to adopt it.
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).

 Daniel Biasone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The answer is that Danny Biasone, the aforementioned owner who pushed for the adoption of the 24-second rule, based his proposal upon his observations, experience, and simple arithmetic.
In Biasone's judgment, basketball was most exciting when it was neither a stalling contest nor a wild shootout, but a well-paced game in which team took 60 shots apiece.
Since professional basketball games were 48 minutes long, Biasone divided 2880 (the number of seconds in 48 minutes) by 120 (the total number of shots taken per game when each team attempted 60 shots) and arrived at an optimal figure of one shot every 24 seconds.

Having split the atom and put a man on the moon, the federal government has funded its most ambitious project yet.
Dedicated to the proposition that Syracuse, N.Y., is a world sports mecca, the Hall counts Biasone among its inductees and is notable for at least two reasons: (1) a dedication to the proposition that Syracuse is a world sports mecca; and (2) it does not include Jim Brown.
Beyond that, one other factor separates the Syracuse Hall from its peers in the field of petty regional homage, fellow cultural meccas such as the Alabama Health Care Hall of Fame and the National Corvette Museum.

So Daniel Biasone, the owner of the Syracuse Nationals, came up with an idea.
He called a few league officials to a small elementary gym in Syracuse with a few NBA players engaged in a pick-up game.
Later, as Biasone was enshrined in 2000 into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass., his brainchild of the shot clock was hailed as the savior of professional basketball at a time the NBA was in its infancy.
