Raymond's most recent post is true for almost all frontcourt timeouts (but not after timeouts granted during a throwin after out of bounds violation), some frontcourt violations by the defense, and all frontcourt non-shooting fouls by the defense.

But not for any frontcourt out of bounds violations by the defense.

It's only a small sample size for me, only eleven games over the past two weeks, but I'm estimating that most (possibly slightly more than half) of my frontcourt violations by the defense, that require a front court throwin by the offense, have been due to frontcourt out of bounds violations by the defense.

Teams still need to know frontcourt inbounds plays from the endline/sideline corner, as well as every other single inch along the frontcourt endline and sidelines.

Lots of frontcourt out of bounds calls in a game, many by the defense, and lots of places where the ball can go out of bounds in the frontcourt.
All those words are going to distract you during a game.

Not sure what out of bounds has to do with the easiness of determining a throw-in spots for fouls and violations? Only people who have problems are those who are more concerned about not liking the mechanics than knowing the mechanics.
