Trail may have seen a shot released after the horn, which presents the interesting possibility that the player may have been fouled in the act but the shot would not have counted. Once the player commences his shooting motion, you can have a shooting foul. If the foul on the shooter occurred before the buzzer and the shot was released after the buzzer, the shot does not count but the shooter still gets two FTs. And the lane would be cleared.

IMO, trail should not have had an opinion on this play because he doesn't know when the foul that lead is calling occurred with respect to the horn. All he knows is when the contact he saw or the shot occurred. That is not relevant.
