Again ther seems to be alot of discussions regarding the fact that when a throw in is touched by a player on the court the throw in ends. Agreed, it does end. But that is not what the rule is saying. It is saying if there's a violation or foul and the ENSUING throw in is still at the base line you retain the right to run. If you take the rule verbatum, ( as it is written) ending the throw in has no credence if the next (ensuing) throw in is still on the base line.
Also, regarding the fact that " causing the ball to go out of bounds" is a violation. As it is written, the ball going out of bounds and touching out of bounds is not the violation. " Causing" it to is.
Under the rules Chapter 4 section 45 defines violations as those listed in 9-1 through 9-13.
9-3 states" A player shall not cause the ball to go out of bounds." It goes on to state the penalty when the violation occurs.
