Correctable error

In addition, I think you can find some support for what he did in Case 8.6.1. I realize it is the "opposite" situation, but it's also a situation that is more problematic. Even in that case, he should blow the whistle and make the ball dead. I think it must be appropriate in his situation.

In addition, I think that case play isn't applicable either.

[just another ref]

Does the fact that the administering official announces 1 & 1 overshadow the fact that it really is 2 shots? Especially when the other official knows that it is 2 shots and acts accordingly?

Why would you completely discount the applicability of this play? The official announced an incorrect number of free throws. There was a rebound. The official then blew the play dead. I think it is reasonable to infer that this case could apply to this play.

How could it be reasonable when it's a different situation?
