I would really like to know how the theory of entanglement does support the basic laws while seemingly contradicting the Heisenberg Uncertainty.

 

I'm confused as to what you are looking for here. Why do you say it contradicts the Heisenberg uncertainty?

Well just that as soon as you try to see the photon position, its momentum is undeterminable, (new idea to me so I may be mistaken) so how does the effects of entanglement conclude to superluminous speeds (contradiction of the basic laws)

But you don't measure the position so accurately that momentum is undeterminable, you actually just measure the spin: imagine you keep the two entangled photons in a loop, so you don't need to actually kknow where in the loop the photon is to measure their state.
