...for a designated spot throw-in at the spot nearest the foul.

Believe it or not, sometimes coaches do know the rules and use a situation like this to try and "work" the officials. Last year I had a similar situation. I am T and A1 takes a three-pointer. He is hit hard enough for a foul just as he returns to the floor (A is in the double bonus). He misses the shot but I report it as a shooting foul (my opinon) and give three shots. B coach is not irate but does question it beacuse he says contact was after A1 came down and he should only get two shots. Fast forward to a later date and I am having a discussion with the same coach (I think it was a summer tourney). We actually somehow get on this exact play and I ask him "If A1 had made the shot for a three pointer, and I said the foul was AFTER the shot, like you argued, you would not have been happy if I gave them three points and the two foulf shots, correct?" His answer was I was probably right. Either way I think I was going to hear it that night so, sometimes coaches just feel the need to say something to you.
