On the other hand, what do you have if A1 has ball in front court, puts ball on floor, then no one touches it (ever)?
Some of us have the shot clock to solve this, but what if you don't have shot clock? Also will never happen, but just wondered what the ruling would be.

1)If A2 deflects ball into back court after team A had player/team control in their front court,A team control continues.Then,you just go by R9-8.This question gets thrown in every 5/10 years or so.
2)If B1 deflects it into the back court,team A still has team control(R4-12-4).The 10 second count still applies.
3)If A1 puts the ball down in the front court and no one touches it,you have some happy officials.That's because it's gonna be a short game(no call until period ends)!
