The ball was not dead to end the third quarter. We still had a 1 and 1 to shoot. The "T" occurred before the 1 and 1 was administered and therefore is still part of the third quarter. 6-1-3b applies not 6-1-4. 6-1-3b states that "each quarter or extra period begins when the ball first becomes live. It ends when the signal sounds indicating that time has expired except that if a foul occurs after time expires but while the ball is inflight during a try or tap for field goal. The quarter or extra period ends when th efree throws and all other related activity has been completed. NO PENALTY OR PART OF A PENALTY CARRIES OVER FROM ONE QUARTER OR EXTRA PERIOD TO THE NEXT." In this situation, the free throws as a result of the foul were not completed. The technical foul happened in that time period and was still part of the third quarter. The fourth quarter should start with whoever has the arrow.
