This one's relatively easy. Game over. Team A got the rebound anyway. B may not be happy, but.
If B had the rebound, you could consider giving them the ball for a throw-in with .4 left.
Or, if B tips in the shot for a basket without a rebound; give them the score.
I'm not sure about that one, though.
With the estimate of the rebound coming 0.1 seconds after the horn, this probably doesn't apply in this case, but what about the possibility that hearing the horn made B stop going after the rebound (yes - I realize they should "play the whistle," but we all know how players are sometimes)? What if the horn sounded, B pulled back, then A grabbed the rebound?
I was thinking of this while writing that. I'd say in that case, go with the arrow.
