Just a thought!
You completely ignored what Mark had to say, didn't you? "I'm right and no one's going to change my mind!"

Advantage/disadvantage is terrific. But it's not the only principle that covers the way we officiate the game. We also have to be fair. To ignore a foul on one end because the basket when in but to whistle the same foul on the other end because the ball didn't go in is not fair. One team was allowed to foul and get away with it but the opponent wasn't because he got called for the foul. You're telling me that's not an advantage? Forgive me but that's horsesh*t.
