This just came to mind after reviewing my last game. Probably discussed, but definately has some interesting options.

Team A is down by 4 with about :07 left, give or take. Shooting foul as well. A is out of TO's. Makes both shots. Player A goes down on the floor after boxing out, claiming he twisted his ankle. This could be a deliberate act to give Team A a chance to review the situation. But, how can you be sure? Are you really going to say, "He's faking, let him lay." Yeah, you can call the "T", but then, that implies that you think he is faking. You beckon the coach, and the visitor's are screaming murder. Is there any good way to make this situation any better?

Just a hypothetical, never happened, but could!

I am confused here. Could you use please describe this play in a casebook format. For example: A1 is fouled by B1 while in the act of shooting. While this is happening, A2 falls to the floor in the free throw lane with a twisted ankle. Is this how the play went? If this is the case then we can have a meaningful discussion about this situation. Until then the play as described in the original post is very incomplete.
