Although not exactly the same, but it does point to that dilemma.
I'm trail 2 person tableside...A1 takes B1 off the dribble and beats him my side below the FT line...Just before A1 gathers the dribble B1 grabs their arm toward my side and causes A1 to turn...I hold my whistle a beat to see if A1 can play through the grab, but B2 gets to the spot just inside the lane and there is contact...my whistle goes just before my partner who doesn't hear mine and comes out PC.
Now we have a problem. I go to him and say, "I have a grab
before the shot and
before the crash.
I take my foul on B1 to the table and since the coach had the same look I did, a simple, "The grab was before the shot so the ball was dead and the PC foul never happened," satisfied the coach.
