Held ball during AP throw in

[BryanV21]

So we should reward the defender for grabbing a ball that was basically handed to him by the inbounder?

Or is it because the defender knows the rule, in which case we should also let defenders use their feet to block passes because they know that it's a kicking violation, and we should reward them for knowing the rule.

What does it matter either way? As long as we know the rules and can explain them quickly when questioned.

Your second paragraph leaves me confused.

I was responding to the idea that the rule is not fair to the defense.
