This is a situation I find fascinating. I've had it a few times. Player catches and shoots, obviously gets the shot away before the buzzer. I wave it off. Fans start to form a lynch mob. Then, if it's a little kids game, I have explained the rule to the handful of fans. Amazing to watch the changes in expressions.

I've had to explain it a few times after the fact too - when asked.

But, as others have said, I'm not explaining a rule to a coach before a play.
