I also never aid the clock was running but I bet you figured that out!
As for diving and sliding...picture the above scenario where a dribbler who is sprinting loses their balance as well as the ball...as they dive for it, they are going be sliding on their stomach (you fall on your butt, you dive on your stomach...right?). When they grab the ball and are slowing to a stop, that's when they roll over to their back. Because traveling wasn't called immediately, you have to assume that (the clock is running and) the player rolled onto their backside while still sliding which leads you back to my statement about them picking up their feet that were on the floor...as was the player's butt.
I can't spell out 100% of every YMtC...some of it must be visualized by the reader. If you pictured the scenario as I intended, you should be able to 'see' what's happening. At least that's my intent...
