Except that, technically speaking, defensive BI is ignored if the basket is successful. This one seems to always get the crowd. They yell, "Hey, that's a violation, right?"

The answer is "Yes, it is...but since the basket was good it's ignored."
However, we're discussing an exam question here, not what we might actually do.
