Mark T.,I like your logic and I agree with it completely.Now,let's adjust the sitch a bit.What if one of the officials get's confused and blows his whistle while B is taking the ball OOB.You are sure going to have an irate B coach,but I don't think you now have any choice(by rule)except to give B the ball OOB,let him run the baseline,and not start the clock 'til the throw-in is touched in-bounds.In effect,your error just gave A an unfair advantage by stopping the clock.Thoughts on this?
