A1 misses the first of the two free throws and finally the referee brings his partners together and after debating it, they agree with the coach. The coach now wants to shoot a replacement free throw citing, the crew "permitted the wrong player to attempt a free throw."
Do we allow the substitute to shoot 2 free throws?

Absolutely not. Those free throws stand. I can't believe that crew would even consider that let alone allow it!! For the record, a coach can sub in 1 player to shoot the first t and then sub in another player to shoot the second t.
