HYPOTHETICALLY, what would the NBA do if,
During game 7 with 10 seconds left and the team losing by 1 has the ball. While the ball is being brought up the court, a few passes happen. HOWEVER as soon as 4 seconds are left, some idiot in the crowd blows an official whistle to confuse the defense. While the defense is confused thinking its stoppage in play, the player with the ball gets an easy layup to win the game. How would the NBA react to this happening?

The NBA might take punitive actions against the fan or his team for it later, but the basket would count imho.

The real decision the Jazz FO is making is between Continuity, Cap Flexibility, and Cash Considerations.

I think it'll still count since the game is still in play.

No way it counts if the rest of the players clearly stopped playing cuz of the distraction. The attacking team will get the ball back and whatever time they had which would be 10 seconds to determine the real winner.
