Resumption of Play????

[jdw3018]

Mark, how do you interpret the following in 4-36-2:

b. A free throw or a throw-in when the stoppage occurred during this activity or if a team is entitled to such.

It seems to me that A is entitled to its free throw, so we go there. I also see no reason why the fact that this is a false double foul changes anything. Each foul carries its own penalty. The penlaty for the double technical portion of the foul is a technical foul to each player and then resumption at the POI which is the entitled free throw.

I also disagree that the POI causes more problems than it solves. Perhaps the rule needs to be more clearly worded, but if you simply look at POI as the point of interruption, any double foul becomes extremely easy to administer.
