It's not as if a throw-in had ended and couldn't be corrected. A throw-in had never been started. So why not revert to the error and give A the throw-in? (Have to give Coach A an answer ...)
Just give him the rule and get the ball in play. The reality (that I wouldn't mention) is that if his player had made the FT, he'd be getting the next throw-in when we wiped the FTA.

If he pushes too hard, let him know he can petition for a change to the rules that are written by (for the most part) coaches and ADs.
