But it still does not make sense to have a rule that would penalize a team more when a violation occurs than when a foul is committed. In this limited scenario it would have been better if the player had push the defender. At least then the basket would have counted and if not in the bonus and not deemed a flagrant or intentional foul, team B wouldn't even get a free throw. Just ball out of bounds at the spot of the foul.

I'm not sure what a viable alternative would be. What if the ball did not become dead? Then when the basket is made, B gets the ball anyway. Where is the penalty?
