Agreed. I'll put a 3 up, because often times they get their feet set and start their motion before the horn even if the shot is late.

That is completely the opposite of what you said. You said you'd pass on the foul and give the ball to the wrong team. The old "saving a foul" mentality. If that's expected in your area (and it may well be), that's fine. But there's no point in trying to change what you said. That's not an advantage/disadvantage call. If anything, you're applying the A/D to the OOB play and just skipping the foul to give the ball to the right team.

No rules backing for this, but there may be this expectation where you work.

I guess I should've mentioned that in the OP.

Nope, the call was not changed.
