 Are you saying that the ball becomes dead whether the shot goes in or not?  If that's what you're saying, that's not correct. 
 
The ball is dead after a made basket and becomes live again when it is at the disposal of the inbounder.  If the shot is missed, the ball remains alive.

 I'm talking about this situation not every situation. In this case, we have a released try then a whistle, so the ball remains live until we find out about the try. It becomes dead when the shot goes in, or when it becomes a miss.
