Go stand directly on the side of the backboard. Throw the ball at the side such that it hits the side of the backboard on the corner nearest out of bounds. Watch it bounce toward the end line ... because the ball is round.

That isn't the OP. In the OP, the player was closer to the end-line. That's when using the angle the ball rebounds comes into play.
