R7-5-7 is applicable only for common fouls committed after a goal was scored and during the ensuing throw-in. You're trying to justify your answer with a rule that has absolutely nuthin' to do with a common foul that was committed before a basket was scored. They're completely different situations and different rules apply for each situation. If you were correct in your interpretation of R7-5-7 applying, then why would the FED put R7-5-5 in the rule book in the first place? There would be no need for it if it was already covered in another rule.

Sorry, I can't agree with you and Chuck either. I'll go with Bob Jenkins. I think that Chuck needs to contact his state IAABO interpreter on this one.
