It's not significant, just odd since this is an either/or situation. Either the shot was released on time or it wasn't. There's no reason to signal it's an attempt if it actually came after the horn. It seems as though in the second it took him to change he somehow talked himself out of the shot being released in time.
On another front: We can't see the full huddle on camera but I'd like to think the L would've been the one to give the strongest argument for the goal to count. He's the one guy who didn't have any players to watch in the sequence.

Camron, I had that thought as well. Then I thought, "Nah, there's no way someone could really think that, could they?" But that might actually explain why he started signalling the three and then brought it down.
