Didn't poll everyone to see how it was understood, but I'd still like to be working on a formulaic way to express it that includes that dimension of it.

Freddy, I'm with Bob. I wouldn't cite other rules etc. if people just weren't getting it and i had to really break it down id try this:
1. Offense is shooting FTs because of a foul. maybe the first of a 1 and 1 or the second of 2 etc.
2. We have a violation by the defense and then a foul. What do we do? penalize in the order of occurrence (as Bob said.)
3. If you have any other free throws to shoot from the original foul (either because the FT was missed or there's a second shot due) you will clear the lane. why? because you have to penalize the foul that occurred after the violation. if you line everybody up for the repeat FT and play on from there you are not penalizing the foul.
4. The foul is penalized by giving offense the ball out of bounds or lining everybody up for FTs if in bonus. Both have to be penalized and in order of occurrence.
people just need to think through it.
summary--penalize BOTH in order of occurrence. thx
