I guess I was assuming that you would ALWAYS administer the ball (in the situation you describe) while on the "outside" (nearest the sideline) of the player. As a result, handing the ball and taking a couple of steps back will provide you with the angle/view you need.

Unless the spot throw-in is at the 3pt line, I can't think of a reason to administer the ball when you are standing on the "inside" (nearest the lane) of the thrower. There certainly is NEVER a reason to administer the ball to the thrower across the lane and then back out (across the lane; under the basket). That, in my opinion, is lazy.
