Double Violation?

[Johnny Ringo]

A1 is attempting a free throw. The ball is released and B1 goes into the lane before the ball hits the rim. Violation.

However, the try is an airball, coming up short and touching nothing. Also a viloation.

Official calls this a double violation. It was the second of two free throws. He awrads the ball to team B for a throw in.

Is this correct?

Who knows? Which way was the arrow pointing?

He said it was POI and B ball because the violations cancelled out.

This has to be wrong in some way shape or form. If B1 commits a lane violation - does it really matter if the try is an airball?

Shouldn't this simply be lane violation on B1 and re-shoot the free throw?

Well when you put it that way, of course it is wrong. POI only involves fouls under NF Rules (double fouls at that).

Yes it does matter. I am sure someone will come along with a casebook play, but it is always a violation for A to miss the rim on a FT attempt, unless you judge the B violation as some kind of disconcertion.

Thanks!
I am really interested to see what some the good refs in here say. I especially want to hear NevadaRef's take on this.
It seems to me that B1's lane violation is the one you have to assert.

Forget what we say, what do the rules say? The rules are what dictate this situation, not our opinions. I am just sharing you what the rules state and if you look at them it will confirm my answer. I am also sure that Nevada will come up with the entire rule if you cannot look it up yourself.

Rule Book 9.1 Penalty section 3 and 4(b).

Use the arrow.

POI is also used for inadvertant whistles, suspended games, and some correctable errors.

Now I'm going with fiba rules as usuall.

When the shooter commits the violation you ignore any violations by the other players, so this would be B ball at the FT extended. Is that right?

Except when the violation by the defensive team is judged to have disconcerted the thrower. For example, if a defensive player enters the lane much earlier than the shot. 43.3.1 states that the violations of the other players are disregarded if they occur immediately before, at the same time as, or after the violation by the thrower.
