Let's use this as a discussion topic. What would you have done? What do you think I did (knowing I like to stick to the letter of the rules most every time).
OK, I think I've been a student of Mr. Padgett long enough to know what happened.
You granted the T/O at the expense of a Technical Foul for Team A, and afterwards awarded the ball to Team B.
