Well, let me first say that, thankfully, when I say there are more to follow…there usually are…..

When no one reacts like this accept the one player you can get the right result pretty easily. But, the statement was made that it would not matter how many players tried to rebound the ball because the ball was dead the moment it was missed. When you are dealing with errors/ommisisons that isn't necessarily true.

If everybody tries to rebound this missed FT, A2 gets it, puts it back in, then referee puts a whistle on it and figures out they didn't count the original score, it is still correctable. The put back basket by A2 counts and B gets throw in on end line. you would not under the rules waive off that basket and go to the arrow.
Correctable errors do make me over think. I won't argue that...
