Foul during shot (off ball)

[Back In The Saddle]

You're looking for when the ball becomes dead during a try (a shot attempt). And you're looking for whether that answer is different depending on whether the offense or defense commits the foul.

So in 6-7, it says the ball does not become dead until the try or tap ends, or until the airborne shooter lands.

I might not be understanding, but if a foul happens during the try or tap (ball is in air), no matter what, I am calling the foul, but counting the bucket if made and awarding a throw in to the offended team.

What if a team is in the bonus or double bonus? If it's during a try then there's no team control, right? So it doesn't matter who it is on you are going to shoot if they are in the bonus/double bonus, right?

Try these rules to help you understand:

6-7-4
6-7-7 (and exceptions listed at end of 6-7)
and let not forget continuation
4-11-1,2, & 3

Also, 4-12 especially
4-12-1 (player control)
4-12-2a (team control)
4-12-3a (team control ends)

Therefore you must know
1 who fouled.
2. when did the foul occur (ie. before or after the release of the ball on try or tap).
3. does team control exist
4. ball dead or still alive.
