The rule states the ball must leave the shooter's hand before the expiration of time, and the try does not subsequently strike the ring or flange, or enter the basket.

As for the rest of the situation, I believe they handled it correctly except for the throw-in spot. Once they were aware of the shot clock - because B's Coach was screaming - they stopped play and fixed things.

Agreed. The officials did what they were allowed to do, and that's go to the monitor, determine that ball did not hit the rim, then fixed the shot clock to what it should have been at the stoppage if it had not been improperly reset.

There is also a case play (A.R. 153) where, if the officials had waited another 4-5 seconds to discover the error, then checked the monitor, they would have to declare the shot clock violation, put time back on the clock to where the shot clock violation occured, and B would get the ball.
