I forget the question.

Are you on my side of this debate or BktBallRef's?

OP #1 is not a violation. Whose side does that put me on?

Mine. You may want to watch where you step. The ground has been known to be shaky over here on the opposite side from where Tony is standing, especially when it comes to backcourt.

(1) Throw-in for Team A near the division line in their front court. A1’s throw-in is deflected by B1 who is applying direct pressure on A1. A2 jumps from their frontcourt, catches the ball in the air and lands in the backcourt.

VIOLATION. The rule allows an offensive player to leave his FC, catch the ball and land in his BC during a throw-in or jump ball. However, this isn't during a throw-in. The throw-in ended when B1 touched the ball.

(2) Throw-in for Team A near the division line in their backcourt (Team B’s frontcourt). A1’s throw-in is deflected by B1 who is applying direct pressure on A1. B2 jumps from their frontcourt, catches the ball in the air and lands in the backcourt.

LEGAL. The rule allows a defensive player to leave his FC, catch the ball and land in his BC.

(3) Throw-in for Team A near the division line in their backcourt (Team B’s frontcourt). A1’s throw-in is intercepted by B1. B1 had jumped from their frontcourt, caught the ball in the air and lands first foot in the frontcourt, second foot in the backcourt.

LEGAL. The rule allows a defensive player to leave his FC, catch the ball and land in his BC. It makes no difference which foot lands first.

(4) Throw-in for Team A near the division line in their front court (Team B’s backcourt). A1’s throw-in is deflected by B1 who is applying direct pressure on A1. B2 jumps from their backcourt court, catches the ball in the air and lands first foot in the frontcourt, second foot in the backcourt.

VIOLATION. No rule allows this.
