I'm thinking that in order to really get it right, R1 should have withheld the whistle for the T until A1 shot the first free throw, since she was already preparing to shoot. Now call the T, clear the lane and shoot the 2 T free throws, then put A1 back on the line for her final shot with the players along the lane.
It could be an issue if the coach makes such a disturbance that this disconcerts the free thrower and she misses that first attempt.

I can see your point, but it really is a judgement call. There are two possibilities that I can see:
1) If A1 was still bouncing the ball: Kill the ball immediately.
2) If A1 was in the act of shooting withhold the whistle. But remember, if you do not withold the whistle in this play, the ball does not become dead becuase of the technical foul. Continuous motion applies to this play.

Also remember under #2, you no longer have any team control on the try so your POI would resume using the AP.
Had this happen to me at camp last year. I called a T on a coach while the free thow was in the air - clinican told me I should have waited until the free throw was over then give out the T.
