When it dropped to 16, it was 16.0.
Now, they round down. So, when it shows 16, it will be between 16.0 and 16.9 and it will only be below 16 when it drops to 15.

I always just confused myself when thinking about these things. The NBA put out a good clip showing the differences between the old and new shot clock that explained this all a lot better than I could.

Save for the shot clocks showing .1 left with 0's on the clock and for the clocks showing tenth's with 10 seconds instead of five or less, then yes I'd say it looks like the one on the right.
