It was a very odd experience to see a team hit a buzzer beater and 300 people go silent waiting on the call. The officials met for a split second, the "under basket" official again gave the three point signal and disappeared in a hurry. lol

As you probably know, in the 2-man officiating system there are two officials, one of which is designated the Referee and the other is the Umpire. If the two disagree on whether or not a goal shall count the referee makes the decision.
It's that simple.
