Brian,
You said that the player was guarding you out of bounds. Does that mean he was standing out of bounds? If he was out of bounds while you were administering the throw in then I believe that is a T. I don't have my rules book handy but I believe it says something about all the players returning to the court at the same time. I'll check the rules later and get back to you on that. Even if you were out of bounds and the player wasn't, the way you describe the player as being no farther than 1/2 inch from you it would have to be a delay warning for violating the plane at the very least.
I would probably handle it the way I described in my previous post. Let them have their 10 seconds of fun. When the final horn goes off, blow your whistle and whack everyone involved with flagrant T's. Report it to the scorer's table and get out of there. Fill out your ejection reports and let the state people handle it from there.
