Question about matches goes to overtime:
Example Round 2, Week 5, Kazan - F.Ulker match:
For the ones who don't know the situation, if Kazan had lost with a difference under 6, Kazan would be qualified to top 8. until the last 20 seconds, Kazan was up 2 and Ulker had the ball. after missing 2 shots and having the offensive rebounds, emir hit the buzzer beater and match went to overtime.
Only an idea; if Kazan had intentionally let Ulker to score when 6-10 seconds left, is it possible after that basket, Kazan had started immediately and score a basket to their own hoop. so they would lost by 2, but still would guarantee to advance to the next stage?
I know this is not ethical, but is there a rule against this situation?
suggestion: the matches that go to overtime, should count for a win with 0.5 or 1 point to prevent such situations. (of course not talking about the matches of this year)
