I'm on your side, Jurassic! I don't get a lot of chances to be right, so please don't yell at me!
I'm assuming the player isn't hanging in midair for several seconds while he is making those several tap attempts so this would be a totally different situation as the player is no longer an airborn shooter.
And.....what if the player is in the air for two taps and is fouled on the first? You gonna give him the basket if his second tap goes in?


Remember, the tap is a "try" too, and it also ends when it is obviously no good. It doesn't matter if the tap hits the board or not. If the tap leaves the shooter's hand, it still ends when the shooter touches it again.

Can you cite any rules that would negate the rules that I've cited?
