BI and foul

You only shoot 1 foul shot if the try is successful. The try is not successful here because the try ends when BI occurs. 2pts are awarded, and since there is a foul on an unsuccessful try we should shoot 2?? This is my reasoning...am open to discussion on the issue however.

Nope, the try is successful because you awarded the basket and made it successful. One shot only on an awarded basket or made basket.

Case book play 9.0COMMENT has a good explanation of BI at the opponent's basket-"The penalty is the awarding of one, two or three points and SUBSEQUENT PROCEDURE IS THE SAME AS AFTER A SUCCESSFUL GOAL..".

A possible 4-point play on a normal personal foul on a shooter that makes the basket? If it was BI on a 3-point try, would you give them a possible 5-point play too?
