Sitch A: On a throw-in, A1 throws the ball into the court but it rolls off the court untouched. Violation and Team B get the ball for the throw-in where A1 had it regardless of where it went OOB.
Sitch B: On a throw-in, A1 throws the ball into the court and is caught by A2 who is standing OOB along the sideline. Violation and Team B gets the ball for the throw-in where A2 caught it.
I don't see where there's a difference... In either case the ball was not directly thrown to a player on the court (In Bounds) before it ended up OOB. As I see it, OOB is OOB, whether it's touches the floor, wall, fan, official, coach, or player. What am I missing?
