Correct. I apologize.
I also agree that the whole "airborne shooter" issue is the determining factor.
After all, if he committed a personal foul, or was fouled while in the air but after the horn had sounded, we'd treat that as being part of the third quarter.
I don't see this as any different.
now, if the shot went in, the horn sounded and THEN someone jumped up in celebration and grabbed the rim, it would be part of the fourth quarter.
