Don't blow the whistle, you keep the count and blow the game over if the 8 sec. expir

I also agree. I've been in situations like yours and I just kept my count strong, firm and visible. Now letÂ’s take this a little further and assume there are no violations or fouls before the time expires. If the bucket happens to go in, close in on the call and signal with confidence. If the ball was released after your 8 second count while the ball is suspended in mid air, immediately turn your back to the play and signal no basket!! No basket!! And continue walking away. Otherwise could you imagine standing there watching the ball go right into the bucket then having to signal no basket. It's a better sell to everyone if you walk away signaling.
