"Simultaneous" Different Fouls

[JugglingReferee]

The rule that covers this situation, I believe, is 2-3.

A couple of Federation penalty fundamentals:

where possible, all aspects of the penalty are applied

penalize in the order of occurance

POI does not yet officially exist

"cancelling-out" FTs exists on simultaneous fouls and could include not awarding a team FTs even if they're in the bonus

B's foul gives A (i) a possible 1+1 with a rebound, or (ii) possession. A's foul gives B 2+possession.

If B's foul is a non-bonus foul, then I can see giving B 2 shots for the T (bullet 1) and then going with the arrow to determine possession. If B's foul is a bonus foul, I can see cancelling the FTs (bullet 4), and give B possession (bullet 1).

The difference between these two is that FTs and possession are dependant on the number of team fouls against one team. I don't like this. Therefore, I think the above logic is not sufficient.

This year: no shots, possession using arrow.

Next year: no shots, possession using POI.
