You know I don't simply answer questions. Just think, after a made free throw A1 has the ball at his/her disposal. Is the clock running? Is the ball live?

Or better yet, A1 has the ball at his/her disposal for a free throw. Is the ball live? Is the clock running?

You are my hero!!!!! I thought of all of those things in my answering of that question.

Some rules book language to support your thinking.

Rule 5 Scoring and Timing Regulations
SECTION 1 GOAL
ART. 1 . . . A goal is made when a live ball enters the basket from above and remains in or passes through. No goal is scored if an untouched throw-in goes through the basket.
ART. 2 . . . Whether the clock is running or stopped has no influence on the counting of a goal. If a player-control foul occurs before or after a goal, the goal is canceled.
