If that FG attempt is good, then who would get the points since "neither team is on offense or defense"?

The scoring of points, has nothing to do with who is defined as offense or defense, rather it depends on which basket a goal is scored at, and by which team the player who caused the ball to enter and pass through the basket is on.
Offense and defense clearly matter for the new shot clock rule as it specifically pertains to fouls or violations committed by the defense in the front court.
