Here is a new twist. A1 goes over the back of B1 making contact. While in the air he taps the missed shot in. Do you call a PC foul, and wave off the basket, and shoot no free throws. Or do you call a pushing foul, wave of the basket and shoot bonus(if it applies)?
Pushing foul. No player control exists on a tap.
Player control foul if the tap is before or with the contact.If the contact is before the tap, it's a push, and you shoot bonus(if it applies). No basket in either case.

1)Rule 4-1-1 -- "An airborne shooter is a player who...has tapped the ball and has not returned to the floor".
2)Rule 4-19-6 -- "A player-control foul is a common foul committed...by an airborne shooter".
