Your statement "there is no TC on a throw-in" is correct.
But, in the play presented, there was PC, and thus TC, when A1 caught the ball. A1 needn't be "on the ground" to establish PC.
If we look at the four rules:
1) A has TC -- yes, when A1 catches the ball (note -- I didn't go back to see which specific number was the inbounder and which specific number caught the ball)
2) Ball in FC -- yes, since A1 left the court from the FC
3) A last to touch -- yes
4) A first to touch -- yes
So, as Chuck said, we would have a violation, except for the three exceptions in the rule -- throw-in, defense, jump ball.
