If this ever happens then (IMHO) the referees need to be shot. If the game is tight, there is usually a time out towards the end of regulation, and one thing I always do is check the scoresheet, and make sure the scoreboard is displaying the same info - it's called preventative officiating.

As an aside, this basically cannot happen under FIBA rules, since it is the duty of the referees to sign and authenticate the scoresheet before the game is over. In fact, the definition of the game being over (in FIBA) is when the referee has checked, and signed, the official scoresheet.
