by my inexact estimate of from when the ball first leaves Trae's hands as the inbounder to when the clock on the screen starts, 1.78 seconds passes. Like I get every human may not be perfect especially with time in basketball where every 0.10 seconds matters but still almost 2 seconds off at the end of your championship game?

It doesn’t start when it leaves his hands. It starts when the in bounds player first touches it, so your number is way off.

How can a "professional" basketball official allow almost half of the time remaining on the clock to elapse without noticing that the clock didn't start correctly?

If you watch enough basketball, you always see the official that is out near halfcourt pointing to another official when the shot clock gets below 10 seconds saying "I got the shot clock if the shot is taken close to the time expiring".

I'm almost certain the same responsibility falls on that same official that has a view of the game clock for making sure the game clock starts correctly when there are only a few seconds left.

It's just one game, but this is baffling how it was screwed up and then ignored.

Clock should start when someone on the court touches the ball, not when it leaves the inbounders hands
