Just to be a little legalistic, I don't think the basket is good, regardless of when the GT occurs. The ball becomes dead at that point, and the basket does not count, but there are two points awarded as penalty for the GT -- isn't that correct? So the PC foul does not affect the awarding of the points for the GT. The shooter can still commit, and be called for a PC foul. So there are two infractions here, aren't there, and they both get penalized? And there's no questions about who gets the ball, because if either one of these infractions occurs alone, B gets the ball.
So A gets two points and one team foul, A1 gets a personal foul, and B gets the ball and to run the baseline.
The logic is that although B gains some advantage by A1's PC foul, B1 in its goaltending gives some of that advantage up by A receiving two points. A doesn't seem to lose quite as much since B would get the ball either way, but they do get a foul added to the count, and that's something.
