It shouldn't take 1.2 seconds (or two seconds in some other example in this thread) to validate the TO.
Certainly with 5 seconds left in the game, you should be attuned to the possibility (or probablity) of a request and be able to recognize the coaches voice (or maybe even be looking at him / her as soon as the ball is through the hoop).
