Maybe it is and maybe it isn't

Put the time back on the clock (assuming you have knowledge of what was there before the snafu), then line them back up and shoot the 2nd FT.

Tim,

I agreed but I would also add that the officials need to blow the whistle a little quicker on this. It just seems to me from the OP that if the lead knew there were two shots he should have prevented Team B from getting the ball back in play. It couldn't have happened so fast that there was not time to blow the whistle. I was not there, but it seems that the referees may have been a little confused as well.
