Any contact during a dead ball is then ignored unless that contact is intententional or flagrant, or on an airborne shooter. You can never have an airborne shooter on someone throwing the ball at the wrong basket anyway.

The whistle immediately makes the ball dead on an attempt at the wrong basket. The ruling on this play will thus depend on when the whistle is blown.....before or after the ball went through the basket.

Make any more sense now, or am I still confusing you?

Yes - thanks!
