If I tell you all these things happened in the same official FIBA game:
1) A good layup is made, but scorer's table did not update the score
2) Scorer's table did not run 24-second shot clock at all, and had to readjust after ball went out of bounds and a team made protests
3) A player is fouled out, but later comes back to play, and after a while when refs inquired about it, the scorer's table just changed the number of fouls from 5 to 4!
These things all happened in the FIBA Women's Asia Cup, North Korea - Chinese Taipei game! Anybody with a livebasketball.tv account can watch the tape, North Korea made a steal and layup at 8:54 in the second quarter, but instead of punching +2, the scorer's table punched -1 followed by +1, nobody discovered it (and I only checked because the FIBA announcer thought he did his math wrong), and North Korea were robbed of 2 points, and they lost by 1!
I've never seen such ineptitude! BTW, in the China-NZL game, when China #7 Shao Ting scored in the first quarter, the video caption read Edmonson (NZL's #7) 2 points...
