Yer just to chime in on this. even though its probably a bug, the way ive always seen it is this

a) Player is substituted, then makes the free throw - i just read this as the common 'sub if scored' situation, even though the play by play says he gets subbed first.

b) Player is subbed, but has missed the FT. - Subs has been called on the shooter, but he misses EVERYTHING - that is, doesn't hit the rim. When this happens, a violation is called, and the opposition gets the ball as an inbounds pass. Substitutions CAN be called here, and as such, the shooter gets subbed.

Thats basically how i treat those situations in my head - although they arent called very well in the play by play.

still. its just how i see it.

Yeah, this is a bug, but a hard one to fix. I'll eventually get to fix it. Until then, try to think of it as Coach Regan does

I think this should be applied to everything. :)

Which means the new challenge is to find a case where there's an offensive rebound of a missed free throw with the shooter on the bench. (I don't know if I've ever seen that, though, nor am I entirely sure I want to search through my games to find out).
