I know someone asked this on another website, but why did the clock stop after the ball left Yao's hands (1:57 on the youtube video)? I'm a big nba fan, but that doesn't mean I know every rule. Is there a rule for that? Or was this a timekeeper's mistake?

If the clock had kept running, I think there would have been anywhere from .2-4 left on the clock, possibly making the shot by Roy null.

There was a foul on the play, so once it was called, the clock stopped.

I was wondering that too at first.

Thank goodness I have Rudy Fernandez on my Fantasy team, or I probably wouldn't have stayed up and watched this fantastic game.

AA, I'm right behind you on the bandwagon.

Well that makes sense. Thanks mike.

I'm on the Kings bandwagon. I've been trying to find a new and inventive way to kill myself for years.

He was given a lot of extra time to get the ball off.

I'm still a little tentative concerning the Trail Blazers since they were a halfcourt team last season, but anyone in the NBA that funs and guns their way to 100 points on a consistent basis is definitely worth watching in my book. Brandon Roy is sick, and if Oden can finally play, this could be a really scary team.

It did seem like the clock started a little late, but man what a shot!!
