CB5.6.B If a TECHNICAL foul occurs after the BALL HAS BECOME DEAD TO END A QUARTER, the NEXT QUARTER is started by administering the free throws.
Rookie dude also makes a good point as B would not get the full benefit of the technical if throws were shot to end 3rd quarter as they may or may not get the throw in (due to AP arrow)
JR I see your rationalle totally that the player is still an airborne shooter, but believe that term is used to describe the shooter being fouled or fouling (PC) before coming to the floor.
4-19-1 as we have refenced previously has an important word in it's definition This refering to CONTACT fouls (which may be intentional or flagrant)committed by the airborne shooter. This is neither of those.
CB4.19.6D does not mention the word contact however, the rule above does.
If any other player on the court (than the AB shooter) commits a T after the horn has sounded and ball is deas it is administered at the beginning of the 4th quarter. Why is this any different? Whether or not the player was an AB shooter should have no bearing as none of the stipulations of the T require or exclude the fouling player to be airborne.
This is really a great discussion
