Just a nit, Coach, but you don't need player control in the frontcourt for the 3-second count to begin. You only need team control. You need player control at some point, somewhere, in order to establish team control. But if the ball is controlled by A1 in A's backcourt and then is fumbled or batted into A's frontcourt, the official technically should begin a 3-second count if any member of Team A is in the lane.
As Clint Eastwood said at the end of The Gauntlet: "Nag, nag, nag"
