There is no "position established" after a
made basket (no "spot"). I think the officials
"blew it" in this case.
I think that officials got it right.R7-7-7 says that the throw-in shall be made from anywhere outside the END line.R1-2-1 and the court diagram define the end line.Note that the end line stops at it's intersection with the sideline.Also,see the last sentence of R7-6-1---"the throw-in pass shall not touch a teamate while it is on the out-of-bounds side of the throw-in boundary plane".That's the sideline violation that you have never heard of.I think that backs the call up.
