Re: This is a GREAT thread, IMHO

Yeah, I understand that argument, but I'm not convinced that it is correct. There are many times in which the penalty for the first foul is superceded by that of a second foul.
For example, A1 is fouled by B1 prior to the bonus. Immediately following the foul, B1 shoves nearby A2 and is called for a technical foul.
The throw-in for B1's common foul simply goes away.
Therefore, as much as we may wish to punish both fouls by also awarding possession, I have serious doubts that this is the correct procedure.
Although the OP did state that the double bonus was in effect, I think that addressing the nonbonus situation is more thought provoking, and that is why I mentioned it.

This is a great thread. Thanks.
Under Rule 2-3, the last refuge of scoundrels and those who have been disenfranchised from the truth by the Rules Committee, we could flip a coin. JUST KIDDING!
Well, not exactly. If it REALLY happened, the non-bonus variant, what would you do?

Enforce them in the order they occurred. It might seem "unfair" but I don't know how else we could / would do it.
