Correct or incorrect. If incorrect is this correctable?

Can you as lead provide this information if T isn't paying attention or should L just call it if T misses it?

I think some people see an airball on a first free throw and just say, "no point next FT," when in actuality the whistle should sound and rule that it is a violation, if nothing else to avoid this situation.

If it's obvious to you as lead, if there is no doubt it missed, call it. But worst case scenario is to call this from the lead but, "OOPS! It barely touched the rim."

As far as time, anytime before the ball is made live for the next play, whether it's a throw-in or another free throw, it's okay to get together and sort out the correct ruling.
