Further, even it it were, the rule also exludes counting it for three if it so much as touches a teammate.
I don't understand this. Please explain.
Rule 5...
SECTION 2 SCORING
ART. 1 . . . A successful try, tap or thrown ball that does not touch the floor, a teammate or official, from the field by a player who is located behind the team's own 19-foot, 9-inch line count three points. Any other goal from the field counts two points for the team into whose basket the ball is thrown. See 4-5-5.

Three basic cases:
A1 throws the ball from behind the arc. No one else touches it. It goes in (try or not). 3 points.

A1 throws the ball from behind the arc. B1 tips the ball. It goes in (try or not). 3 points.

A1 throws the ball from behind the arc. A2 tips the ball. It goes in (try or not). 2 points.
