I believe you have to go to AP if the shot is missed, and give the ball to team B if the shot is made - in either case putting 0.7 back on the clock..
Rule book does allow for educated guessing in situations like this. Can't remember where it is in the rulebook but this was brought up in a thread recently. I would put something like .5 seconds left. In this case, anything above .3 would be satisfying for me since anything under a second and above .3 second would mean the team is just going to inbound it and shoot it right away.

Or am I thinking of something different with regards to correcting the time?
