3 second violation

[Adam]

The three second count does not start until team control is established and the ball has front court status. One thing to remember here.
The ball cannot have front court status while it is out of bounds. That means the throwin must be over before a 3 second count can start.
Now, once the throwin is over, the team with the ball must have the ball in their front court in order for the official to start a three second count.
