Clarifications to situation.
Team B had no opposition on lane for rebound, cleanly rebounded and yelled TO at same time after having given advance warning of the desire for an immediate TO. Whistle blew immediately at time of rebound. Should 1 second delay apply, or should the clock sit at 2.2 seconds?
On restart, I was not counting, but I have watched a lot of last second plays. I have timed them a hundred times for my own teams in practice so we know what we can get done in certain situations. No way 3 seconds went by, although possibly 2 did. It was a real quick count. I felt like he went right with 1 1/2 counts and blew game dead. It all happened really fast. Should ref blow at 1.5 seconds if he believes time has expired, or is there an allowable time delay for starting clock as well?
