3.2 seconds remaining.
Missed Shot Rebounded.
Crosses the division line with 0.6 seconds on the clock Coach asks for the time-out.
Referee blows the whistle
Player ends her dribble and shoots.
While the ball is in the air horn sounds!
The ball goes in the basket.

Following this argument that no time should be placed back ... then why didn't the basket count? Which is the offical stop - the whistle or the clock?

If the player launched the thing before the horn ......

We need a Zapruder Film on this one!
