After the game I brought it up and both were argued with me...exactly as I figured they would and hence the reason I didn't bother during the game.  |
Wasn't the reason for changing the rule to team control during a throw-in to prevent the defense from taking foul shots? Unless I'm mistaken, this situation was the very reason the rules makers changed throw-ins to team control.
