I intend the following in a respectful manner and as a serious question.
Is English a second language for you?

No. English is my first language. Why do you ask?

Maybe a Bunch of missing articles spots Where normally belong and some Misplaced capitalization.

I didn't really notice anything when I first read your post with such style not all that uncommon on informal internet message forums.

EDIT: Looks like you've cleaned it up now.

Like this one? I was just trying to cut down on unnecessary words to save the good people of this forum some time and I didn't really proof read it before I submitted it. I fixed it for you though Nevada.

I didn't want to be insensitive to someone who may be asking a legitimate question, but was foreign and thus had some syntax problems and spelling errors in the post. Since you state that is not the case and you have corrected most of the OP, I'll only mention that "whistle" should be plural.
Now to your actual basketball question. If you consult the rules book, you will see that a second FT violation by the shooting team is only ignored if such occurs by a player in a marked lane space. Since the shooter is not located there, the official should properly penalize both violations.
I believe that Camron gave you excellent advice on how to deal with the uncaring veterans who lack rules knowledge. Just make the correct call according to the books and pass those people on your way up the ladder.
