Continuous motion - shot missed
 
6.7 SITUATION D: A1 has started a try for a goal (is in the act of shooting), but the ball is not yet in flight when the official blows the whistle for B2 fouling A2. A1's try is successful. RULING: Score the goal by A1. If Team A is in the bonus, A2 will shoot free throws. If not, Team A will have a designated spot throw-in nearest to where the foul occurred. COMMENT: The foul by the defense need not be on the player in the act of shooting for continuous motion principles to apply. (6-7 Exception c)

And if the try is unsuccessful?

Same as above, but don't score the goal.

Actually that case book ruling needs to updated because the throw-in spot will now be at one of the applicable 8 spots.
