What are the only situations that allow the inbounder to keep the privelage of running the baseline after a made basket? Or, when does it not become a designated spot throw in? I know there was a thread earlier about this, but I am still having a hard time with this one. Maybe I am just making this one too hard.

When there is a violation on B then A retains the privilege of running the line.

In the case of a common foul on B and the resulting throw-in is along the end-line, A retains the privilege of running the line.

See 7-5-7.

Rule 7-5-7 "After a goal or awarded goal as in 7-4-3, the team not credited with the score shall make the throw-in from the end of the court where the goal was made and from any point outside the end line. A team retains this privilege if the scoring team commits a violation or common foul (before the throw-in ends and before the bonus is in effect) and the ensuing throw-in spot would have been on the end line. Any player of the team may make a direct throw-in or he/she may pass the ball along the end line to a teammate(s) outside the boundary line."

Our discussion of last week centered around a Double Foul occurring before the throw-in ended. The discussion was lengthy and not settled.

See all four (4) pages of thread #24365 Can the endline still be run.

I think one thing we all agreed on is that the non-scoring team retains the privilege if the scoring team violates or commits a common foul. An intentional or flagrant results in a designated spot throw-in. Those are clear from the rule and a case. What was unclear was how POI interacted with 7-5-7.
