Actually, the NF does allow for the lead to bounce the ball up the sideline for a throw-in below the FT line extended. It is not, however, required. It is left to the discretion of the officials based on the game. Also, if the call was on the trail's line, the trail would administer the throw-in. The purpose of this rules is to keep the trail/lead essentially performing a switch on an OOB sitution deep on the lead's line.
That is in two man, not three. To person the Trail is the only official that bounces the ball to a player on the sideline. The lead only worries about his line and the post players.
Rut, you can bounce it if you are the Lead and they are right there on the corner...if you pregame it!

Denny, as of when did this become a mechanic? This year?
Below is last year's change.


List of major changes to be reflected in the

The following items reflect the major changes to be reflected in the 1999-2000/2000-2001 Basketball Officials Manual:

5. When the designated spot throw-in is to be taken on the sideline, below the free throw line extended (ball remaining in the frontcourt), the Lead official may remain on the endline and bounce the ball to the thrower (two official crews only). (220)
