Yeah, right. Last night, for the fourth time this season, i had one of the jumpers catch the opening tip before the ball touched another player or the floor. The offending team, of course, lost both the ball and the AP arrow. Never had it before this season...

I also called one of my tosses back this year, too. Gah...
The offending team should have lost the ball because of the violation of catching the jump ball, but the possession arrow should be pointed in their favor as soon as the ensuing throw in begins, because the initial violation determined who got first possession of the ball following the toss.
