I'd have had my players (if I was a coach) shoot into the defender's hand.

In that case, the FT would end when it was clearly unsuccessful...heading towards a player and not the rim....and it would be a FT violation on the shooter for having the FT end before it hit the rim.

Sorry, I was assuming the defender's hand was extended between the shooter's hand and the rim. Even if the shooter shot it underhanded, it the freethrow wouldn't end until the defender touched it, creating a goal tending situation.

Interesting.

I think I am going with a technical and no goaltending. Clear the lane and let A1 shoot two free throws then shoot the technical foul. Throw-in for Team A at the division line.

Agreed...I'm just not sure the GT violation fits here. Don't like the disconcertion idea either. Pretty sure it's a plain old unsportsmanlike T - similiar to reaching across and hitting the ball on a throw-in.

Bugs me that Snaqs came up with something that made me have to stop and think!

You know what they say about a stopped clock? Well, that doesn't apply here, so never mind.
