Be Careful
In the past, a coach may have told his team to either commit a violation or foul so the other team would lose their throw-in rights. The NF changed this a couple years ago so that a violation/foul by the defensive team would not cause the throw-in team to lose their rights to run the baseline.
But be careful on where the violation/foul occurs. As this will technically determine the throw-in spot. If the violation/foul occurs in the area where you would normally take the ball out on the baseline, then the team would still retain it's right to run. However, if the violation/foul occurs in an area where you would take the ball out on the side, it now becomes a spot throw-in.
