I agree...I'll admit I have been. This ol' dog as been hard to teach a new trick to.

What's the POI? Well, b/c there was an infraction (B1's personal foul), we know that A1 would have had control if the double T had not occured.
...and this helps clear it up tremendously.
I was stuck on "team control" at the exact time of the double tech call. The examples by Kelvin and Chuck helped make more sense...and correctly stated about who would have had control if the double T had not occured.

I had a scenario in my head of a double T after a Time Out. No team control(just like a throw-in)...but, now using my newfound clarification, it would be POI to the team that would have had the ball after the TO.

Probably, the confusing part to me was the fact that I got the Throw-in, double fouls, AP procedure down (since no team control), before I read and understood the full concept of POI.

I also like Kelvin's "exception rather than the rule" statement...that helps.

Thanks again.
