If it weren't a hard foul on the base line, I would give a warning to keep their hands off. And I hate counting a basket and giving the ball back to A, but it what has to be done.

Am I wrong?

Only thing I think might be wrong is hating it. I actually had one of these last night in a BV game. Two handed shove by the defense. No argument about the foul, but both coaches of the offending team were positive that the penalty was wrong, called a timeout to ask about it.

"There's no way they get the basket and get to keep the ball."

wow

Just imagine how perplexed those coaches would've been if Team A had been in the bonus when the foul occurred.

I had that this season, albeit on a missed 3 pointer.

So I jinxed myself. Had this today in the exact scenario I mentioned that it happens in most of the time.

I had the exact same thing last week.

"The basket is good, so it's our ball"

No coach, the other team gets the ball.
