If A1 has passed out of the trap why would A2 pass the ball back to that sideline? He would be smarter to pass the ball to the other side or better into the lane for a layup.

You don't beat a press by keeping the ball where the defense is. You beat it by getting the ball and offensive players where the defense aint.

As M says, this type of thing is mostly seen on the endline as the ball is swung to the weak side.
