Not a good day for the 35-second clock. Here's a situation that happened in the second half, and I'd like some of your opinions on what should be done in this situation.

Ball goes OOB, deflected off of B, in A's frontcourt. I look up and see that the game clock is at 13:13, and the shot clock reads 4. Because it was so low, I wrote the time down on a sheet separate from the scorebook.

Ball is inbounded from tableside, and is then passed into the opposite post. A1 goes up for a layup/low dunk and appears to be fouled by B1. C official blows his whistle.

At this point, the game clock reads 13:09, and the shot clock still reads 4.

Center official comes over and states that there's no foul, and that the ball didn't hit the rim.

How do you handle the situation?
I don't know exactly what happened. I'm assuming (since the official stated that the ball did not hit the rim) that there was no basket. Shot clock starts, on a throw-in when the game clock starts. Since you had definite knowledge of the time that should have ran off, there is a shot clock violation. Can you be clearer, or did I miss something? What happened?
