Delay during FTs

[BryanV21]

One scenario involves the shooting team violating, the other scenario involves the defense violating. If the shooting team is not doing anything wrong you can't take away their free throw opportunities, hence the different ruling.

If the shooter is ready there's no delay. Just let him/her take their FTs. If the shooter's team isn't ready, that holds up the game.

I think we would all agree with that. But that doesn't explain why 8-1-2 says to issue a T after using the RPP once, and the case play says to issue the T after using the RPP twice.

I don't think this really has anything to do with it, Bryan. 8-1-2 specifically says that if EITHER team violates after using the RPP, a technical foul is assessed. So I don't think the different rulings can be related to the fact that different teams violated.

I misunderstood the question, sorry.

As for 8-1-2, it states "following a violation by one or both teams, if the offending team(s) continues to delay, a technical foul shall be ruled." In 9.1.2 a violation doesn't occur until the 2nd free throw, and the technical foul doesn't happen until the non-shooting team delays during the substitute free throw.

EDIT: Or what BigCat said right before I replied.
