if touched by the offense and deflected from inside the three point line (two point area) then two points.
So, as I read this case that you've provided, it makes it a two if it is deflected. However, if it is merely touches without imparting a change of momentum, this case does not apply. Would you agree?

Not to bring physics into this debate, but any touch would, de facto, cause a change in momentum of the system - both that of the ball and the player.
