I guess the fair resolution would be to take the two shots at which A2 did the worst.  |
Do you really think that?
That's just silly GW reasoning.
If the
FIRST foul was a personal foul, we know that there is a designated free thrower for that penalty. Also you know that the
SECOND foul was a technical foul for which any team member may attempt the FTs.
Since the NFHS rules clearly state that the FTs should be administered in the order in which the fouls occurred, the
ONLY correct solution is to
cancel the first two FTs that were administered for the
FIRST foul as those were the only FTs that were attempted by a wrong shooter. We don't care who attempted the last two FTs.
In this case, doing anything else would be "screwing one of the two teams" as JR is so fond of saying.
