I agree, Bob, no advantage gained.
Ok, I'm buying that...I tried to make a valid argument and tried to bend the situation in 9.2.2 in my favor. However, if you would have giving ruling from 9.2.2 Situation D you would of had me... just trying to create a little discussion.
9.2.2 Situation D
Ruling: Legal, a player may bounce the ball on the out-of-bounds area prior to making a throw-in.
Granted, in my opinion, it would be a silly play unless you are playing Horse or making an And 1 video... I've got nothing unless they can't complete the throw-in within 5-seconds.
Good stuff!
