Question on a situation

I saw this situation a few nights ago and was wondering if someone could shed some light on it! LoL

Actually if the foul is before the ball goes in the basket the points do not count. This is not a try, ball is dead on the foul. If A is in the bonus, shoot on the proper end. If not, A ball out of bounds.

JAR is correct. The key to this question is the definition of a try, and when a ball is dead on a foul. To qualify as a try, the attempt must be made at the correct basket, and on a foul, the ball becomes dead immediately excpet in the case of a try or tap.
