try this scenario.
1. A1 starts the shooting motion.
2. B1 fouls him.
3. Horn sounds
4. A1 releases shot.
5. Shot goes in.

Result. No basket, two freethrows for A1 for the shooting foul.
Here's the Case Book reference to back it up: 6.7 Sit. C
Under what circumstances does the ball remain live when a foul occurs just prior to the ball being in flight during a try or tap? RULING: The ball would ordinarily become dead at once, but it remains live if the foul is by the defense, and this foul occurs after A1 has started the try or tap for goal and time does not expire before the ball is in flight.
