No, whistles do not make the ball live, there are very set ways for the ball to become live they are listed in 6-1-1&2...and there is nothing about a whistle there

Exactly! The ball became live once the administering official placed the ball at the disposal of the free thrower.
My question is, in the original post, the whistle was blown before the release of the free thrower.
Ball was then dead. Start over once the smoke cleared.
