I believe the team that did this action and threw the ball into the stands and obvious to everyone was behind by a couple of points. All I know is the official in question was applauded by the higher ups that he made this call.

I'd applaud them louder if they'd just let the clock run out. The T still gives the offending team at least a miniscule chance of winning, with two missed tech free-throws and a steal of the ensuing inbounds pass.

The offending team has virtually no chance if the clock simply runs out.
