I admit I did not see the pass, I need to work on my tunnelvision. But only a few minutes later, I realized that what A1 did could be considered a try, since the pass occurred after he was fouled during what I considered the act of shooting.

All opinions welcome!
It's your judgment. I may not have ruled the same as you, but I wouldn't tell you that you are wrong based on your judgment.

And I would always prefer for newer officials to err on the side of shooting rather than not shooting.
