Waving off a shot is a mechanic IMO that can be preformed diferently depending upon the degree in which you need to sell the call. I have used the mechanic (FED) of simply waving once w/ my non fist/clock stopping hand and then dogging the offender, giving preliminary, pointing to spot, all the way to stepping a few feet beyond the players and emphatically waving the shot off a couple of times with both arms as well as verbalizing loudly "before the shot or no shot". Sometimes in a critical sitch such as late in atight game or to end the quarter this call needs to be sold to players coaches and fans.
