Interesting (to me) side note: In the latter situation, if A is down by 1, then A can win without going into OT by making both FTs. If A and B are tied, then there's OT no matter what. So it almost seems as though it's an advantage to be down 1 here...is that right?
No, if the score difference is greater than the number of free throws game over, if it is 1 or 2 points you need to see if there will be an overtime, thus they become part of the fourth quarter. [/B]
I'm not sure I follow what you're saying here. Let me simplify the discussion to clarify what my question was. Suppose that after the 4th quarter ends, there is a technical foul assessed on B.

If the score is tied, then you start OT with the two FTs.

If A is down by 1, the FTs become part of the 4th quarter. If A makes both FTs, A wins and there's no OT.

Is that right?
