That is the only angle I found. The ball was loose by the time you see contact with the arm/hand. Another angle would be helpful. I also think that the combination of the fact this was at the point of the Elam ending magnifies it further.

Personally I think that if the Elam ending was a number and a clock it could really work. If you set the score to be a certain Target to be reached and that if the score is reached before time runs out then the team that hits the target wins or the team that has the most points when the clock runs out

This still generates the intent of limiting fouls because it's free points towards the target while also providing a fair shot in a game so that you don't have or heavily reduce the possibility  of a scenario like this where officiating can actually end the game and choose the winner. I also think if you do this you push the target number to +10 for regular time and +5 for OT.

I think you then could use a single Elam ending overtime without the clock and allow for a straight forward equal strategy to finish it out. Make winning the tip truly important vs ceremonial.
