4. Go to reporting area

5. Goal counts (motion of hand in downward direction)

6. Repeat Three-point field goal successful ("touchdown")

7. Report color and number of fouler

8. Type of foul (push or "hack")

9. State the number of FTs (obviously one)

I'm almost with this. In the middle of #3, I'll give a "count it" (for lack of a better phrase) signal followed then by the TD.

The rest, I'm with.

It's happened once this season so far. Usually happens at least once a year. Biggest one of these was at the buzzer at the end of the quarter in a regional boys game about 4 years back.
