The principle that the referee stops timing as soon as he blows the whistle in basketball match is that in basketball match, the timekeeper is the operator who controls the timer, not the referee. In the basketball game, the referee is only responsible for blowing penalty kicks. Timer is an electronic timer controlled by the timekeeper of technical station. The referee only whistled, which was just a hint. According to the rules of the game, the referee is only an auxiliary role, but it is really the work of the timekeeper.

At the beginning of each game, the recorder will inform the referee more than three minutes before the start of the game, so that the referee can inform the teams of the two games. Every time we see a game suspended, the timekeeper starts the stopwatch. When the timeout reaches 50 seconds, the recorder will send out a signal to remind the players that the time is up.

When the timekeeper operates the clock, make sure that the pointer does not leave the switch button of the timer. Observe the operation of the clock at every moment of switching the clock. If the timer is out of order, if it can't display the clock, or if it displays inaccurate timing figures, please inform the recorder. The recorder will inform the referee on duty and remember the exact time of the clock failure for adjustment.

If the timekeeper's signal doesn't ring or can't be heard, the timekeeper should immediately notify the referee by all possible means. During the NBA timeout, the coach can scream when the ball is dead, or the players on the court can scream when the ball is still alive. Mainly because the suspension request can be sent directly to the referee without going through the record form. You can scream as long as you pause. If there is no timeout, and you mistakenly call it timeout, then the technical foul will be penalized for a steady shot.
