Here's the situation. White hits a 3 to go up by 3 with 1.3 seconds remaining. Black calls two consecutive TO's to set up their desperation play. Coach informs me "We're going to pass the ball to 1/2court and call another TO." All cool so far. Black inbounds with a pass that gets tipped by white at halfcourt and the horn goes off with no control by either team. The problem arises in that the horn has sounded prematurely and there is still 0.9 secs showing on the clock. The timer is as confused as the rest of the gym as to what happened. What do you do and why? I'll follow up a little later with what we did and why as well as a followup to the rest of the craziness in the final 1.3 seconds of a very crazy game. Thanks for your input.

We know that the tip by White occurred at 1.3 seconds.
The answers what to do depend on what the timer is confused about
: Did the timer stop the clock on your signal? Did the timer stop the clock when he sounded the horn (without a signal form you)?
And the answers depend on what you observed and did: Did the officials signal to stop the clock? How much time had elapsed before you signalled for the clock to stop?
