Wow. I thought that this was only a play that officials asked each other to show off how well they know the rules. I had never heard it happening in real life...

Anyway, a shot at the opponents basket is not a try. (4-40-2) Thus, the ball bacame dead at the time of the foul. Since you said that B1 was fouled in the act of shooting, B1 was fouled before the ball went in which means that no goal should be counted (can't score with a dead ball). If Team B was in the bonus, B1 would still get his/her free throws.
