Like all other defensive fouls, the ball remains live until the try ends if the foul occurred after the start of the shooting motion. The basket is counted if and only if it goes in the basket. If it were the offense committing the T, the ball remains live only if it has been released by the time of the foul.

A seperate goaltending or basket interference infraction is possible since you still have a try in progress. They are the only way that the basket can be awarded, not from the slapping of the backboard.

In case (A) and (B), the basket is counted and the T is assessed.

In the last case, the only way I can interpret what is written is to say that A1 still has the ball at the time he gains this advantage. The ball is dead on the T. No bucket.
