If they shoot BEFORE THE INTERMISSION and at the basket which the team was shooting during the 1st and 2nd quarters, it certainly looks like those FTs should be considered part of the first half/2nd quarter.
Therefore, I believe that my reasoning to consider the mistimed FTs to be part of the 2nd quarter, especially if they were attempted at the same basket with no change of ends, and chalk it up as an officials mistake, makes the most sense. We know that the shouldn't have done it this way, but they did, and now we are stuck with it.
[/B][/QUOTE]Nevada, you're completely and conveniently ignoring rule 5-6 and casebook plays 5.6CommentB and 6.3.1SitB again. You know, the rules that tells you when a quarter ENDS and how to administer technical fouls after a quarter ENDS? I've given you answers straight from the rules. I'm tired of quoting the same ones while you try to find some more irrelevant rules language to bend to try and fit your fantasy. Of course the timing of shooting the FT's was an official's mistake. But the officials made that mistake AFTER the second period ENDED. Compounding that mistake by giving an AP would be YOUR mistake and YOUR mistake alone! I've been repeating myself and repeating myself for the last 24 hours on this one and I've got nothing more to add. Believe what you want to believe. I quite simply do NOT agree with ANYTHING that you have stated so far.
