It says A1 is at the free throw line for his second of 2 shots, A1 with the ball, before A1 starts to shoot B1 violates and the official inadvertantly blows his whistle. All It says is the ball is dead. So now that the officials realize their error Does A1 still get 2 to tries to make his one shot? even though he never attempted a shot on the violation, A1 stopped b/c of the whistle.

thanks again

Yes. A1 still gets two tries. A1 gets the FT which was due as a result of the foul and A1 gets the FT that will result from the delay violation.

Another possible variant. A1 at the line. B1 violates. A calls timeout. Same result as above. When the timeout is over, the FT is started with a delay violation indicated by the official.

The delayed violation persists until A1 shoots or A1 violates. With the new rule on violations, only a violatoin by the shooter matters once B1 has violated.
