"On the floor" is a pet peeve of mine. It implies that any fouls committed on a shooter while he/she is on the floor are not shooting fouls. Continuous motion allows the shooter to take as many as two steps and still get the "and one".

The Officials Guidebooks says to "point to the throw in spot and simultaneously tell your partner that a throw in is to follow".

Whenever I have a partner that uses "on the floor" I usually just freeze until I can hear what he reports to the table to find out if we are shooting or not.
