Since we are talking about a length of the court shot here, it is likely done while time is expiring.
IF TIME EXPIRES while the ball is in flight, and then it hits the ground, and bounces into the basket, then the ball is dead and no points are scored. (Also- no points if it hits the ground, then time expires, then goes in. Either way- the ball becomes dead when time expires because it is not in flight on a try for goal.)
If for some reason this occured in the middle of the game with the clock running, then it is 2 points as everyone has stated.

Sounds fair enough.
