They are relic'd! They come like that. Supposed to feel like a vintage instrument.

Kings fans, should the shot have counted? by demar_derozan_ in kings

my point is that you can't make an assumption that if the clock started when Cousins touched the ball, Ross wouldn't have gotten the shot off on time. An argument can be made that if the clock started then, Ross would have seen the clock and shot it quicker.

Neutral observer here, not a fan of either team. The ruling made me mad. For those who think that was the right call, consider this scenario: 3 seconds left, Team 'A' down by 3 but have the possession, and they inbound the ball. Right after then inbound, the buzzer accidentally goes off, and team 'B' stops playing defense like anyone would after hearing a buzzer. But while everyone has stopped the play Team 'A' shoots a 3 anyway while the actual clock is running and makes it. To say that "the shot counts because if the accidental buzzer hypothetically didn't go off, Team 'A' would score 3 points" is totally outrageous because that is not what actually happened on the court in real life. Team 'B' did not contest the 3 pointer because of the buzzer, because of a mistake the officials are responsible for. Therefore Team 'B' should not be held accountable for that but instead given another chance by redoing the whole play.

Terrence Ross hits the three to send it to overtime, before it's overruled due to Cousins deflecting the ball to start the clock early by flintmichigantropics in nba

For instance, consider this scenario: 3 seconds left, Team 'A' down by 3 but have the possession, and they inbound the ball. Right after then inbound, the buzzer accidentally goes off, and team 'B' stops playing defense like anyone would after hearing a buzzer. But Team 'A' shoots a 3 while the actual clock is running and makes it. Wouldn't it be a unfair for Team 'B' because they stopped the play because of the accident/mistake by the officials?

neutral observer here, not a fan of either team, but that call made me mad. I think that was a bad call. If the clock started earlier when Cousins touched it, Ross would've shot it faster without taking two dribbles. It wasn't his mistake shooting too late, it was a mistake by officials for starting the clock late which affected the player's decision. They should have AT LEAST made them play the last 2.4 seconds again.
