You and Hartsy both took that out of context. It was written for a situation in which there is no team control when the player becomes airborne. I'm only talking about a situation in which a player from a team causes the ball to go from backcourt to frontcourt. My sentence specifies that. It does NOT pertain to a situation in which the team causes the ball to go: frontcourt to the backcourt and back to the frontcourt. That is the example which the two of you gave.
Additionally, Scrapper pointed out that in your scenario the violation would occur prior to the player landing, no matter if he lands in the frontcourt or the backcourt.
