Let me stir the debate! What if the pass from A2 to A3 went into the basket in the air? Is that a 2 or a 3?
>>>This has been fully discussed previously. The concensus was that you would count the 3 because it is too hard to judge intent in this case. In theory, if it is a pass, it's a two, if it's a shot, it's a three. It becomes a harder call on an alley-oop.
Remember, in theory, there's no difference between theory and practice - but in practice, there is.
