Time running down in 3rd quarter HS boys Varsity game. A1 drives to basket and dunks just as time expires. I count basket. A1 then procedes to do a pull up on rim. Technical foul called. The question is, are the free throws administered as an extension of the third quarter and then we go to the area to start the fourth; or do the tech throws start the 4th quarter w/ B then getting the ball at half court. Remember the ball is dead when it passes through the basket and the quarter had expired when the T was whistled.
The "act of shooting" doesn't end until the shooter hits the floor.Therefore,the act of hanging on the rim is part of the 3rd. quarter.Fourth quarter starts with the AP.
JR: I don't think that is correct: Reading rule 5-6-4, I think we start the the 4th with the tech throws.

5-6-4 states: If a tech foul occurs after the ball has become dead (it did when it went through the hoop 6-7-1) to end a period, The next quarter is started w/ the administering of the free throws. This as long as the free throws have no affect on the playing of an extra period. (didn't it was the end of the third)
