If an offensive player fouls a defensive player during the "rebound", it is a team-control foul and the defensive team will not shoot free throws.

I think when the player throws at the wrong goal, you consider it a pass unless that same player is first to touch after it hits the board. Then it becomes a dribble, possibly an illegal dribble. Team control foul on the rebound is one thing I hadn't thought about. The possibility of a ten second violation while a "shot" is in the air would be interesting.
I can't believe we're discussing this.
