Is this a back court violation?
The location of the throw-in is irrelevant to any ruling. The fact that B1 tips the ball is also irrelevant for this play. There is nothing relevant until the moment a player on the court gains player control. There can be no backcourt violations until AFTER the act of player control.

I cannot believe in all these years you've been officiating that you've never had an offensive player tip a throw-in into the backcourt and a member of his/her then retrieves the ball.
