Not sure it’s the same as reviewing a past 3 point attempt to make sure a foot wasn’t on the line, as that’s pretty cut and dry. And that’s generally done on the next dead ball or during the next time out after the make in question.
Funny they were like alright Myles, we are going to shoot these two and then you can come back for your second.
Also, I don’t see why a concussion should be any different than a sprained ankle, torn acl, or whatever other injury.
Yeah, Myles made his first, then there's the TO, then the additional time for the league to call in and point out the error. I would be it was 8-10 minutes between his FTs.
It's also a little odd because PHI missed their 2 FTs, but they got the offensive rebound. I believe they missed the shot thereafter, but that speaks to your point. They'd obviously get to keep those points too...
Re: the bolded, it's because the original rule prevents the obvious angle shoot in a high leverage spot "Oh no, my worst FT shooter got fouled, guess he's hurt and my best FT shooter will have to take the shots. Darn". Instead, if a player is hurt, he has to leave and cannot return and the opposing team gets to pick anyone, including players on the bench, to take the shots.
The concussion protocol is different because the NBA can call for it. It wouldn't be fair for a team to lose a player because the doctor wants to check him out, only for him to come back in later (as happened tonight) and the opposing team to also get to pick the shooter. PHI didn't angle shoot, nor would they have had the chance. The NBA pulled the player, so PHI gets to name his replacement.
