Spot Throw-in or run the endline?

I don't have the rule book in front of me. It's actually in the bathroom as I read it during my "breaks". I try to answer questions here from memory, which sometimes fails me.

Thanks for the answer.

This year though, since players can enter upon the release, fouls can certainly happen before the ball goes into the basket.

Fouls were possible before, just less likely. Players in adjacent spaces could have easily fouled each other without violating the FT provisions. Players not along the lane could have also fouled each other. Not being able to go into the lane under the old rule just reduced the probability of it happening.

This situation can be changed up a little. Maybe the foul on A2 was Team A's seventh foul of the half and now Team B is in the bonus. How do you like those potatoes?

That makes it easier, IMO.

I agree. A lot less explaining to the coaches.
