No whistle now?

Ok, I'll play apples and oranges with you.
Let's say B2 had immediately launched a shot after stealling the ball because it was near the end of a quarter. And your whistle comes after the shot has been released. Are you still counting B2's basket?
You are applying the following concept:
What was the ball's status when the whistle was blown when the correct concept is:
What was the ball's status when the foul occurred.
You need to completely understand the concept of the ball's status during a foul before you start coming up with obscure interpretations. With
Camron, although I disagree with him, at least I know he knows the rules in regards the ball's status when a foul occurs. He is just choosing to apply case 10.4.1 to a personal foul.
Case 9.3.3 tells you about
non-contact violations and case 10.4.1 tells you about unsporting T's. Why are you insisting on adding in personal fouls?
