Your state interpreter is wrong.

The rule is clear in that it says the common foul or violation by the opponent MUST be before the throw-in ends.

How much time can pass before the foul is no longer considered "immediately?" Without some definitve time frame, the dribbler could cribble for 9 seconds, get fouled, and still be able to run the end line.

His interp makes no sense.
