Substitute initiates the contact

So... after reading 7.1.1A

what would we call if we felt the incoming substitute initiated the contact from OOB?

Say the substitute thinks the dribbler is going to fall into him and the sub then sticks out a hand to prevent the collision ... and then the dribbler subsequently falls down, loses the ball, or collides with a legal defender...

Would the team affiliation of the incoming sub make any difference in the ruling?
