Just started reading this thread. I worked a game where a play similar to this happened. Here is the play it happened in a Holiday Championship
VB game this year.
A Team HC calls his last T/O with 14 seconds left in the game. The A team was issued a DOG warning in the 3rd quarter for breaking the boundary plane. The A team is down 4 points. A1 has a sideline, tableside, F/C throw-in.
A1 passes to A2 who dribbles for a few seconds then passes to A3 who has a wide open 3 point shot opposite table. A3 shoots, made basket (A team down 1 point), as the ball is falling through the net, I was tableside and could see the clock in the background, there was 7 seconds on the clock.
The ball bounces twice when A4 picks up the ball and wraps his arms around the ball on the OOB side of the baseline while looking @ the Lead official. Lead said that when A4 picks up the ball that there was 5 seconds on the clock. A4 keeps looking @ L hoping for a whistle, doesn't get it so he bounces it toward Lead who ignores it, clock runs out. Game over. A team HC coach wasn't @ all happy that we didn't blow the DOG "T."
AD comes in after the game and wanted to know what happened? My partner shows him the COMMENT in the book. He says good job and that he will relay it to the HC which was his Coach.
Never thought I would see the play let alone hear that it happened again.
