To me it does not matter. Even on the sideline, the configuration of the gym and where fans are might dictate many places I put the ball in at just because we might not have space to attempt a throw out of bounds.

I am stunned by this. 9-3 PENALTY is pretty clear that the throw-in is from the designated out-of-bounds spot nearest the violation. The violation is the ball striking something out of bounds. Nearest would be.....nearest.
