Kapono, Farmar do the 'impossible'
I didn't mean to start with quite so many videos, but I saw this episode recently and have been raving about this new style of programming.
FSN's Sport Science is less than a year old and it's a breath of fresh air in sports TV. In this episode, they see if UCLA alumnus Jason Kapono (with Jordan Farmar on the assist) can beat the NBA's Trent Tucker Rule. Enacted in 1990, the rule basically says that a player cannot score if he receives the ball with less than 0.3 seconds to go on the game clock.
Plot spoiler: What's cool about this episode — like so many of them — is that they "break the rule." Kapono does beat 0.3 seconds. Although 0.22 seconds wasn't quite enough to challenge the NBA's rule book, it's enough to make you go hmmmmm, and maybe enough to argue for a clock that measures in hundredths of a second instead of tenths.

The problem is not to measure the time in tenth or hundreds of seconds, but when the clock starts (as recently shown in the Raptors-Hawks game); thus, even if you measure the time in hundreds of seconds, it is useless if you have no automatic method to start the clock with the same time resolution.

First at all... sorry for my poor English.
I think, the video has a mistake.
Time starts when Kapono take the ball with his right hand.
However, the secodn time, Kapono catch the ball with his left hand first, and the time not run!
