Option B: Hold your whistle until after the rebound.

Any preference? Or, is there an Option C?
My preference is option A as that follows the rule. Option B is done by several people, but has no rule basis. Option C is to keep permitting the offense to rebound and shoot until either they score or the defense secures a rebound. That isn't correct by rule either, but I've also seen people do it.
