I had this happen earlier this season when I misapplied the exception to the backcourt throw-in rule.
Once I saw that I was wrong per the case play with my exact same scenario, I told myself,
I guarantee you won't get this wrong again any time soon.
In that past, I had a game where I called a shooting foul followed by a T, and my partner then administered the shots in the wrong order. Last night, I had the same situation (shooting foul followed by a T). Given last night's partner was a rookie, I made sure we met to discuss the T, and I made sure he knew we shot the original three free throws first, followed by the 2 for the T.
