On the other hand, if there is a throwin on the endline and the player runs across the endline after throwin the ball in and pops inbounds to receive a return pass for an open shot....getting that.
The case/rule talks about "Purposely and/or deceitfully". If I don't see a purpose or deceit in the player's actions, no T. Lazy or sloppy is not purposeful or deceitful.

THAT'S what I'm picturing, and your reasoning matches my own.
The fact that the official was on the wrong side of the thrower just makes it look worse.
