Is this correct? I know he didn't have definate knowledge of how much time to put back on....the clock did not register tenths of a second.
Should time have been put back on the clock? It doesn't seem right to just let the game end with the foul and no throw in when the whistle clearly preceded the horn and the possesion could determine the outcome of the game.

The clock didn't have tenths and the horn sounded just after the foul.
You can't reset it to less than 1 second and 2 seconds is obviously too much.
1 second seems like definite knowledge to me.
