The OP and the case play have the same official's mistake. Neither play addresses blowing the whistle. The
ruling addresses blowing the whistle. Whether it's blown before or after a player rebounds and shoots the ball, the ruling and principle are the same.
The case play clearly says B is placed at an disadvantage if A is allowed to keep the ball simply because he rebounded. Yet, you say he can keep the ball and score with it?
The rule reference at the end of the case play is 2-3. Does that tell you anything?
