"frontcourt/backcourt status is not attained until a player with the ball has established a positive position in either half during a throw-in in the last 2 minutes of the fourth period and/or any overtime period."

What about when a player is out of bounds, then jumps and catches the ball in the air and lands in-bounds? That would be called out-of bounds because the player hasn't established himself in bounds. So, why is this rule any different to the frontcourt/backcourt" rule? The player is in the air and hasn't positively established himself in-bounds or out-of-bounds. I don't really know but, maybe the rule applies differently in this case.

Maybe a hand in the back is a foul but,

what about Wade pushing off Terry near the sideline?

Or what about on Game 6, Wade after coming out of a screen threw his arm into Nowitzki's chest and the refs calling the foul on Dirk?

I'm hardly a Mavs fan, but the I'm sorry to say that the refs blew it.
