In basketball, an old-fashioned three point play is achieved by scoring a two-point basket, being fouled in the process, and scoring one point on the free throw. It is named thusly as before the three point shot was created, it was the only way to score three points on a single possession. It is even more commonly called a "three-point-play". Various other names for it have arisen throughout the years. Hence the term commonly used among NBA analysts "a three point play the old-fashioned way." Also known as AND 1 [1][2]
