Therefore, if my whistle blows before the horn; I've got definite knowledge that time should not have expired before the shot was released.
Are you really telling me that a player can be fouled just as he picked the ball up, and that player could then go on and finish the rest of his shooting motion and get the ball in the air- all within 0.1 seconds?

That's ridiculous, Snaqs. There's a time lag between the foul on the shooter and the subsequent release of the shot. And that time lag could be a helluva lot longer than 0.1 or 0.4 seconds.
