Now, I'm not the brighest pupil in the classroom but this does not seem right.

I believe you should pass on the foul is the shoot is successful or count the basket and award one free-throw.

JMO, it does not make sense to disallow a basket but award free throws for a shooting foul.

Thoughts???
What do you consider a trend? You've seen this how many times? Did the trend also include ejecting both coaches?

A's coach: It went in!! Give us a basket and 1 shot!

B's coach: It can't be two shots! You waved it off! It's gotta be 1 & 1!
