last second shot

If A1 shoots a successful FT, and the scorer then immediately signals to tell you that A2 should have been the proper shooter, if you don't have a "do-over" with A2 shooting a repeat FT(with all the trimmings- line-up,etc.), then what do you have instead?

Do we have different definitions of what a "do-over" actually is? I think that it is just simply repeating a play from the beginning. You?

Perhaps we suffer from differing definitions If, for whatever bizzare reason, A1 were required to attempt the free-throw again, that the original one didn't count, I'd consider that a do-over. But I find it difficult to call it doing over when you are doing something different (i.e., putting a different player at the line).
