Re: A free throw??

Yes, I know. But it also becomes dead after it. Therefore, if we shoot two by a wrong player, we would have a dead ball between the two free throws, but that wouldn't affect the time frame for correcting the error, since the clock didn't run yet.
Get my point?
Notice that I specified that the free throw attempt doesn't matter "since the clock is stopped," not "because the ball is dead," which we agree it is not!
