From what I can tell the violation coincided with the on-screen clock hitting 0:00. Move along, nothing to see here...

Had this happen in a BV game two seasons ago ('12-13) after a missed FT. B1 got the rebound and - realizing he was wide open - scored into the wrong basket. Happily my partner and I shut it down before things got completely out of hand, i.e., before Team A completed the throw-in.

I even remembered to tell the scorer the goal wasn't credited to anyone on Team A!

If the player in white heaves it toward the wrong basket and the buzzer goes off while the ball is in the air does it count if it goes in?

Rhetorical questions, or quizzing our newbies?

I know you know the answer to this.

Actually, I see two different ways to look at it. What are you saying?

A try is only at one's own basket.

5.2.1 says that when the officials allow the teams to go in the wrong direction all points scored count as if they had gone in the right direction. When the officials allowed the wrong team to complete the throw-in and didn't blow it dead, as far as I'm concerned, they "allowed the teams to go the wrong way."

This scenario was taught in my training several years ago. It stood out as one of the few scenarios that I was completely unaware of as a player. But it makes sense -- not a try for goal, so treat it like a pass; ball is dead -- no basket. Same thing if the player driving for a layup at the wrong basket is fouled while attempting a shot at the wrong basket; not a shooting foul.

No points given, ball is dead when horn goes off unless on a shot.

That's what I was thinking.
