Maybe the problem some have with this from the description is remembering that the ball was taken completely out of the hands of the player standing inside the arc before being flung at the goal. In their minds they see a player about to attempt a shot and then another player on that team somehow helping it toward the basket, without cognizing that there'd been a change in player possession of the ball. Once you answer, "Who had the ball last?" it's easy.

Either that or they interpret the second player as having been supported off the floor by the first. the ball being part of the "pyramid".
