I'll play the coach, "Toren we never established player control after the throw-in ended. Why is this a violation?"

After giving it some thought, here's how I would adjudicate the original OP.
The throw-in started so we had team control for the sake of not shooting free throws if the offensive team happens to foul and the defensive team is in the bonus.
The throw-in ended when A2 legally deflects the pass.
We do not have team control for the sake of backcourt violations, that isn't established until A3 catches the ball.
So we have a legal play in the OP.
But I wanted to make sure that we aren't saying it's the throw-in exception that gives A3 the ability to catch the ball. Because that is not accurate.
