OK: Let's say we do count the goal...do we count it as two (2) points as in Rule 5 Sec 2 Art 1...?

1)Completely wrong. A legal touch by any player does not end a try. Rule 4-41-4. There never was a second try.

2)By rule, there is NO second shot. The first shot never ended as per R4-41-4.

3) Yes, if the touching by the teammate was inside the arc. If the touching by a teammate was outside the arc, it's a 3. Case book play 5.2.1SitC spells out the different scenarios.

Joseph, the language in R6-7NOTE is straightforward. It applies directly to elecref's original question. Your answer was wrong.
So, looks like another irrational iconsistency here...

A1 shoots a 3, A2 touches it inside the arc...it counts as a two. It seems like this means A2's touch is the start of a new shot. If not, why is it not a 3?
