To not allow A to keep the arrow when B fouls, gives B consecutive possessions on held balls, not alternating possessions.
Not really. A gets possession, it just results in a foul rather than play on the court.
By defintion, having the ball for a throw-in is not a possession.
semantics.
I guess I could buy yourarguments if it was called the "alternating throw-in" procedure, but it's not...you would be taking away a possession that team is entitled to because the other team commits a foul - that's not right...might as well say that when A1 is dribbling the ball and B1 fouls him/her but it's not the bonus, we're gonna give B the ball oob because A had their possession and to call a foul on B and give A the ball back would be penalizing B twice...doesn't make sense in either situation...
