Please give me the correct call in either situation...much appreciated.

If whistle is before the ball is out of shooters hand, shot does not count. A2 goes to the line and shoots "1 and 1". If whistle is as ball is in flight, count the basket and A2 shoots "1 and 1". I'm not sure about the meaning of "after the try ends, or before the try ends" in relation to the question.

Are you sure? Please, take a look at 6-7-7 EXCEPTION. I have quite a different perception of the scenario.

Before the try ends refers to the ball is still in flight...which is how I remember the play happening. One of my partners thought it was after the ball went through the hoop or after the try had ended.

We counted the hoop and shot 1 and 1...but it wasn't without argument.
