Following this mechanic makes it basically impossible to do what you're stated above.

That is what I do when I am handing the ball to the thrower. The step back has you avoid a soft karate chop to the gut and gives the first second time to occur for the start of the count. The step back on a bounce to the thrower accomplishes the same thing.
