Isn't making much of little what officiating is all about? :D

I'm afraid that I must disagree again. I remember going over a situation with our interpreter that is similar to this. Suppose A1 makes a throw-in that bounces on the sideline before A2 catches. The interpreter says that this is a violation, since the pass was not directly onto the playing court.
