My crew kicked it...

I think this is worse than a quick whistle - this isn't being aware of the situation. Both C and T here should be ready for this type of play by A1. I could understand and accept the quick whistle theory if this was in the middle of a game. But in an end of game situation, you have to be aware that the shooter is going to miss on purpose, probably by throwing the ball hard, and get ready for collisions around the basket.

It was both a lack of timing and a lack of thinking.

We've all made mistakes, myself included, so I'll get off my high horse.
