The thrower could also bounce the ball of the back wall or the stanchion as long as that action is PRIOR to making the throw-in pass and not part of it.

Thanks for the great explanation guys, and for taking the time to post it.

I love the Meadowlark Lemon play. It should be in the casebook. And none of this A1, A2 crap, just have Meadowlark pass it to Curly Neal in the caseplay.
