In other words, A1's position is based on his foot in the FC, not the non-pivot foot. Apply the same situation above to the three point scenario, and I think you'd get more votes to count the 3.

Dan,I see where you're coming from.In the same situation as above,if A1 picks up his pivot foot in the FC, A1 is still legally in the BC,by definition.He still has to shoot,pass,or call a TO,though, before the pivot foot hits.If not,it's a travel-not a BC violation.I'm just not sure if you can ignore the fact that A1 started a shot,by rule,with one foot over the 3-point line.
