No disrespect intended, but his opinion is irrelevant in this case. This is not a judgment question. This is a black and white directive in the rulebook. The ball is put in play at the spot that is closest to where it went out of bounds, with the sole exception that we don't put it in play directly behind the backboard.
Put the ball in play where it's supposed to be put in play.
