What I don't like about the L dropping is that this mechanic confuses the issue if the L signalled prematurely. If the L drops because the toe was on the line at the last second, then the T is signalling a 3PA when it isn't.
The L should raise the arm only when sure that it's a 3 point attempt, not before.

In Fiba the mechanics is just the one mentioned by mcdanrd.
