Yes, it is only illegal for the THROW-IN PASS to contact the OOB area on its way into the court. The OOB pass to a teammate behind the end line may touch the floor OOB.

2. Can a player who is inbounding the ball dribble it (assuming the dribble is completely out of bounds)?Yes, case play 9.2.2 Sit D.

3. Can you have two players out of bounds on a throw in pass the ball anywhere or just under the basket? In other words, could they line up on the sideline and do this? If the throw in spot is at mid-court, could they pass back (out of bounds) to a teammate standing (out of bounds) at the free throw line extended? No teammate of the thrower may be OOB during a designated-spot throw-in. (9-2-11) They can only be OOB for an end line throw-in following a made or awarded goal.

Never seen any of this happen and I can't find it anywhere in the rule book.
