Let's play "what if". Let's assume you agree with the theory (and I think I do) that A1 is entitled to the result of his shot based on the continuous motion theory. How would you have administered things if team A was in the bonus and A1's shot did not go in? You really couldn't send A1 to the line after A2, since no one on team B made contact with A1. It seems weird to me that A1's shot is good if it goes, but if it doesn't, that's tough.
I agree with your interpretation. The penalty is the same as if there had been a foul in rebounding after the shot. If the ball goes in, it counts...otherwise, tough cookies.
Still, i have never seen this happen. Furthermore, a coach couldn't exploit this loophole and do it intentionally, since it'd be, well, an intentional foul.
Would this play have the same interpretation in the NCAA (both men's and women's)?
