basket interference?

The foul occured on the OFFENSIVE team much like a team control foul in NCAA.

It doesn't matter. The shot is in flight. No foul causes the ball to become dead except a PC foul by an airborne shooter.

6-7-4,5
The ball becomes dead, or remains dead, when:
4- A player-control foul occurs.
5- A foul occurs (see exception below).

EXCEPTION: The ball does not become dead until the try or tap ends when:
1. Article 5, 6, or 7 occurs while a try or tap for a field goal is in flight.


It doesn't matter whether the foul is by the offense or the defense, the ball does not become dead.

Had the ball not been released, then a foul by the offense would cause the ball to become dead. In the same situation, continuos motion would apply if the foul was on the defense.

I DON'T count that basket if the defender was shoved in the back so hard that he had to grab the net or something to prevent his falling. But that is my insignificant opinion.

Based on what rule?
