I saw this situation a few nights ago and was wondering if someone could shed some light on it! LoL
But guys, he KNOWS that the points count! Who are we to tell him differently?

4.41.2 SITUATION: A1 becomes confused and throws the ball at the wrong basket. A1 is fouled by B1 and the ball goes into the basket. Is this a successful basket? If A1 missed, would A1 be awarded two free throws for the foul by B1? RULING: No goal. The ball became dead when the foul occurred. When a player throws at the opponent's basket, it is not a try. If the team is in the bonus when B1 fouled A1, A1 is given either a one-and-one attempt or two free throws at Team A's basket. If Team A was not in the bonus, then the ball is awarded to Team A for a throw-in at the out-of-bounds spot nearest the foul. (7-5-5)

Seriously, welcome to the forum EastTN. Sorry for the immediate teasing, but I have just grown a bit tired of new people coming on here and making rules statements as if they were facts, when they are actually completely wrong.

I hope that you have learned something already.
