I had a coach ask me for an interpretation of a situation he had in which the shooter shot the ball and a foul was called clearly after the ball had gone through the hoop and the shooter returned to the floor. I told him it would have ignored it unless intentional or flagrant since the play was dead after the basket was scored. Was I wrong in my interpretation?

MPLAHE,
You were right if the contact was incidental.
You were wrong without providing additional conditions.
Depends on the quality/quantity of contact.
