First I don't believe the whistle should of been blown to start with ( I believe the other 2 officials knew this) But after this happened I think they did the only they could and that was give the ball back to Team A and resume play. Have any of you had this happen to you? (The shot came just after the whistle, so you can't count the basket)

This too happened during a State Tourney game, but they didn't blow the ball dead. Which I am wondering, what is the ruling? If I am not mistaking, you continue play. If the basketball goes in, call a Official Time and allow the player to put the shoe back on? I will have to look this one up later on.
