Twardo, welcome to the board. Glad to have the additional input. However, your statement above is only true if the first violation is "faking". If one player fakes a move into the lane and then another player steps in early, we only penalize the fake b/c it "caused" the other violation.
However, if there's normal play, and two players step in (B2 followed by A2), we only penalize B2.
4. If there is a violation first by the free-thrower's opponent followed by the free thrower or a teammate:
a. If both offenders are in a marked lane-space, the second violation is ignored, as in penalty item (2).
b. If the second violation is by the free thrower or a teammate behind the free-throw line extended and the three-point line, both violations are penalized, as in penalty item (3).
c. If a violation by the free thrower follows disconcertion by an opponent, a substitute free throw shall be awarded.
d. If a fake by an opponent causes a teammate of the free thrower to violate, only the fake is penalized.
Man, I love cut 'n' paste! Thanks, Tony.
Keep on postin', Twardo.
