Please, some one with a greater knowledge of basketball expand on this article and link it to basketball and NBA. Its impact on the game is tremendous; without it, the NBA might not exist. Oh, as far as the "other sports" line, I may have made that up. Do other sports use a shot clock? --Feitclub 17:59, Sep 20, 2004 (UTC)
I removed the line about shot clock criticism due to intentional fouling. This statement is inaccurate because the shot clock resets on team fouls in the college game and I believe is now reset to 14 or 15 seconds (if the shot clock was down to fewer than 14-15 seconds) in the NBA.
The NBA resets the shot clock to 14 seconds after fouls if less than 14 is showing and the foul does not result in a turnover or free throw.
Other sports that use a shot clock include water polo and lacrosse (though I'm not sure if it universally used in the latter).
In the footnote at the bottom of the page, "averaged an average" should be changed to "scored an average" or something similar to get rid of the redundancy.--71.132.2.148 07:29, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
Australian Rules Football shot clock?
The introduction says that a shot clock is used in "professional Australian rules football." I occasionally watch AFL matches on TV, and have never seen a shot clock used. I also don't believe there is a professional AFL; AFAIK, all players are semiprofessional, with 9-to-5 jobs during the week. Does anyone have more information about this? 66.234.218.146 (talk) 20:05, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
