Called a jump ball, wrong team inbounded, goes down the court, goes up for a shot, gets fouled and scores. That's when I realize what I did.
So what should you do in that situation? What does the book say should happen?

Disallow the basket. Report the foul. If you can remember what the exact time was prior to the throw-in, have the timekeeper to put that time back on the clock. Apologize to the coaches, players and fans, and then readminister the throw-in to the correct team. Last but not least, take less games, if 6 games is clouding your judgement.
