That should not be a factor. The play is usually dead before the whistle is blown. So if the officials feel the foul happen first, no shot. The whistle should not be a factor in their decision.
That's a fair point. So let's change the question. Did the ACT of shooting start before the foul?
I based my original post upon my judgment of the start of the pulling action for the foul, not when the whistle came. To me the beginning of the foul happened prior to the act of shooting.
