If you recognize the error <b>before</b> a change in possession occurs after the last wrong FT ended, then you just line 'em up and re-shoot the FT's with the correct shooter on the line.

The common criteria is that <b>all</b> of these activities occur <b>after</b> the last wrong FT ended, and that any activity that occurs <b>after</b> the last wrong FT ended is not cancelled, by rule.

2) Did possession change after the last wrong FT ended? If so, you go to the POI after you shoot the substitute FT's. If not, you line up and shoot the substitute FT's.

A possession change would be a member of the non-shooting team either holding or dribbling a live ball in-bounds after the last wrong FT ended.

Make sense?

Just for the record.....

I'm citing the way it actually is, by rule. If you want to change something, then you're trying to change the rule.

If you, cancel the possession by the throwing team, there is no change of possession when the non-throwing team gains possession after the FT ends. If there is no change of possession, then we do not go to POI.

We do go to POI in this situation, so the possession by the throwing team is not canceled...so EVERYTHING prior to the end of the FT can not possibly canceled.
