Actually, I don't think they are inconsistant as you suggest....

It is a given that no fan or coach would not know the difference and most officals would not know either.
Rule Book 2003-04::Page 59, Rule 11 Section 12 Penalty 1.--if goaltending occurs at the opponents basket, "the official shall HAND the ball to a player of the team entitled to the throw-in".

The GT was by the defense at the offensive teams basket. The throwin will be on the endline. All endline throwins in the frontcourt are handed to the thrower.

This one was was at A's basket and since B's getting the ball, A committed the violation. The throwin is along the endline but in B backcourt since it was at A's basket.
In the backcourt, all throwins can be bounced or handed.

Correct. It must be one or the other. We can't let the player just grab the dead ball and resume play.

Obviously the Books are not consistent with each other. To be redundant, if the books are not consistent then no one in the gym would know what is proper. However, when in doubt I do what the rule book says. I was just curious was to what answers would be given on the board.

They are consistent.
Frontcourt endline throwin...the official must hand the ball to the thrower.
A throwin from any other location...official may hand or bounce the ball to the thrower.
After a BI or GT, an official must administer the throwin.
