This issue came up before and i am still not sure. JR, I agree with everything up to the point of whether the shooter completed the try or the ball was simply knocked out of his control before he could complete the trying motion.

The example I invision is A1 taking the ball up but B1 fouling before A1 gets the ball above his head. The ball comes loose, A1 regains control and shoots it, or whacks it toward the basket and it goes in.
I can't see how the try can end before the ball is shot.
If that same ball slips out of his hand before A1 shoots it, it not considered a try.
