Thrower tosses ball to official

I know we've talked about this before and the solutions have been to catch it and throw it back, bat it to the floor, or (my favorite, but probably wouldn't do it) duck!

I believe it was the WVU - Mizzou game today and I believe the official was Jim Burr, although I was watching two games at once, so I can't recall for sure.

In any case, after a basket by B, A1 takes the ball from the net and throws it to the official. The official caught the ball and placed it on the floor right next to him and started his count. What made it interesting was that A1 was still probably 15 feet away or so and had to run over to get the ball and still try to inbound it against B's press. Maybe this happened earlier in the game so the official spoke to the kid and told him not to do it, and this was his response.

Anybody else see this today?
