Don't overlook the restrictions imposed by these sentences:

"As long as the thrower maintains any portion of his/her body on or above the
3-foot designated-spot area while making the throw-in, the throw-in shall be
legal."

"The thrower must keep one foot on or over the spot until the ball is released."

Do you believe that the throw-in spot extends to the inbounds area of the court? Can a player legally make a throw-in from inbounds?
