Physically impossible, unless the shooter has the ball on an actual string (illegal) or is capable of actual magic (I might rule that an advantage not intended by the rules.) Once the shot is released, the shooter's motions cannot affect it.

Simple, just because the try itself is still legally not over doesn't mean the shooter's motion is part of it.

Now, if the contact is close enough to the release that you can't tell if it was before or after, then call it; but I'm not waiting to see if the ball goes in.

True enough, except for the jv and varsity officials sitting in the stands.
