This situation cannot occur in the middle of the game, because part of the situation is that it is at the end of the game! In the middle of the game, if this happened, you'd award the appropriate number of free-throws, toss B6, give the ball back to Team A after the free-throws and go on. The game would then be won or lost by whoever. But part of the original situation as described above is that Team A has their only chance to win taken away in a manner that is egregiously unsportsmanlike. B6 probably thinks he's clever to take the DQ, giving the shooting team only two shots for the T, and thereby winning the game for B. This sort of twisted logic must not be allowed to succeed. If there were any chance that team A might not hit enough foul shots to win, I'd forfeit.

Bob Jenkins, Did we agree that we couldn't forfeit?
