What I don't know is how the other two officials missed the horn. I can excuse the lead a bit because he's concentrating on the impending contact. But the C on this play has last second shot responsiblitiy and should be listening for the horn. This is also why I've been thought that all officials have an opinion on a last second shot. In this case, the trail should have also been waiting for the horn in my opinion. Those two should have been able to talk the lead out of administering free throws due to the period ending.
