Does that make a difference in your original answer?

Nope. I consider the result of the play. I will also say the closer to the basket this is more likely to be the case. The further away from the basket it is more likely I will not care about the ball going in. Reason, there is more contact around the basket legal and illegal. I might have to take an extra second to determine if that contact near the basket made much of a difference.
