In some situations, a team could get the basket and the
ball ( this is often referred as "double jeopardy" ). The NBA rule avoids this
problem:
- if A2's 3-point attempt is good, it counts and A1 shoots one shot.
- if the basket was not good, either Team A gets the ball out of bounds for a throw-in or
A1 shoots penalty (2 shots), depending on the number of team fouls in the period.
With reference to the foul type: in all the cases, this is an general example of a
"bad" foul. Only in the case of a foul intentionally made on a certain player to
send him to the line, may be classified as "good" - in case of missed free-throws
-or "neutral".
