Point of clarification. Did the officials forget it was 2 shots and state 1? Or, did the officials state 2 shots and then it was played as 1?

In this situation, it doesn't matter. In fact, I can't think of how it would matter in any situation if the officials have a collective brain fart and allow rebounding and scoring action to go on.

Doesn't matter what the officials indicated. Just matters what happened after the ball is released.

I'm not sure it matters either, other than if they stated 2 and it was just the players playing the ball and scoring, it could be waved off...but if everyone forgot and the play was played, then it's a failure to award a merited free throw CE situation and the score will count...still trying to figure out what was wrong w/ my original post then.

Go to commercial break and ask Billy Packer what the correct call is!
