In act of shooting

[Troward]

Its slow at work today, so I am getting a lot of my questions answered, thank you everyone.

regarding NFGHS "Continuous Motion"

A post player on the block begins his spin to baseline for a turn arround jumper but is hacked accross the arm before he can bring the ball up to attempt to shoot it. Is he in the act of shooting and awarded two shots?

A player on the fast break has dribbled the length of the court and has now ended his dribble and is beginning his foot work for a lay up but is hacked accross the arm and before he can bring the ball up to attempt to shoot it.Is he in the act of shooting and awarded two shots?

Both of these scenarios are usually called for non-shooting fouls on the floor, yet I feel they could be considered in the act of shooting based on the definition of continuous motion.

interpretations?

thanks again
