Yes, Jerry. That's why this is a last option. Once you place the ball on the floor in the circle, the team is screwed out of either a FT or a TO. (If they don't wish to violate by entering the FT circle, they can take a TO and come out on time.)

So they either lose the FT by violating, or they're forced to burn a TO to get the FT. So try to get them to break the huddle without using the RPP in this case. If it's just a throw-in, no problem. They can rush out of the huddle, grab the ball and make the throw-in; but they can't do that if there's a FT involved.
