Situation #5 this weekend.

If player A1 is about to inbounds the ball and he is being defended by B1, does B1 have to back up to allow three feet if A1 has room to back up? I say no. If A1 has room to back up then B1 can be right at the line without coming over. I would only require a defender to back up if the thrower had nowhere to go because of court conditions. Is there a rule on this?
