We go to the POI, which is the throw-in. Is this still considered an AP throw-in? If it were a single foul, the ensuing throw-in would not be an AP throw-in and the arrow would not be switched.
But since we're using the POI, is the POI an AP throw-in; or simply a throw-in?
Had this happen in the game before mine tonight. My partner and I went around on it for about 20 minutes. I can see both sides of it. We decided that if it happened in our game, it would still be an AP throw-in and we would switch the arrow.
Anyone have any other thoughts?

My thought is that - in the absence of much interpretation for the new rule - we should, for clarity, for simplicity, hell, even for consistency, take the idea of POI as literally as possible. If it was an AP throw-in that was interrupted or pending, go with the AP throw-in.
