A1 hits a basket.
Ball goes through the net and bounces toward the FT line.
B1 grabs the ball and starts up the floor.
I know what to do.

Hmmm. I have a question on mechanics now. Let's say the ball bounces beyond the free throw line before B1 grabs it and starts dribbling. Where do you put the ball in play for A? Endline or sideline? I'm thinking sideling based on where the violation occurred, similar to a backcourt violation where it doesn't get touched til it nears the endline.

I wouldn't call a violation here. I would blow my whistle to stop the player and tell him/her it needs to be taken out on the baseline.
You can call what you like but the rule and case play say it's a violation.
