Heard that once before but I disgarded it. Who cares what the coaches think, use the arm closest to the evaluator.
Seriously, my board's best (IMO) trainer/evaluator is more concerned about the 5-second throw-in count being done with the arm opposite the in-bounder, as not to accidentically hit or distract the thrower during your count, even though ideally you will not be close enough for that to happen.
