Rule Book 9. Section 1, Penalties - clearly states that the ball becomes dead when the violation occurred and the out of bounds provision applies "if no further free throws are to be administered."
Sounds like this was "kicked." What say ye? Shoot the second?

Shooter A1 violating on the FTA means that if it goes in, no point is awarded. No substitute FT is permitted. Because the official doesn't know if the shot will go in until after the violation, s/he should blow the play dead before the shot's result is known. The FTA is dead and we move on to the second throw.
The T kicked the ruling.
