When definitive information is unattainable with the use of the monitor, the original call stands.

It would seem that the horn is the first determinate. However, by implication, if the shot clock shows a definitive reading of zeros then the shot clock can be used.

In that case I'll stick to the opinion that the Refs made the right call because what I saw, or more exact, didn't see, was anything definitive on replay other than the buzzer went off long after the shot. Somehow ruechalgrin did see something definitive but I have to question if he had more to drink than I did or if he was watching with his red and blue glasses on?
