Rules were not applied correctly. These games really stink for determining whether the officials have left the court. Since they hadn't left the confines of the court, you can make a plausible argument that their jurisdiction for that game hadn't yet ended. However, since the next teams had taken the court for warm-ups, I'd argue the jurisdiction is over for the previous game as the jurisdiction has now begun for the next game.

Secondly, if they're going to correct it, you can only re-shoot the shots that were given to the wrong player. In this case, I'd disallow the first two shots and keep the 2nd two, no matter how those were made. Re-shoot the first two with the correct shooter. In this case, the correct shooter would have shot the free throws with the score tied.

Edited to add: What Dan said.
