Inbounds after hoop....

I don't think that both B12 and B10 can be OOB passing the ball back and forth though. Or did I miss that in the rule that was cited?

Sure they can, if it's not a designated spot throw-in. All 5 B players can be OOB practising a Globetrotters' routine if they want, as long as one of them throws a pass towards the court before the end of the 5-second court.

So we have to do a lot of "reading between the lines" on this one....

What am I missing here?

Rule 7-5-7 states- "the team not credited with the goal shall make the throw-in from the end of the court where the goal was made and from any point outside the end line". It also says "Any player of the team may make a direct throw-in or he/she may pass the ball along the end line to a teammmate(s) outside the boundary line".

There's no "reading between the lines" involved. The rule explicitly states what you can legally do.

FIBA:
17.2.6
The player, who makes the throw-in, may move backwards or forward and is allowed to pass the ball to a teammate on or behind the line. However the 5-seconds count starts when the first player has the ball and is ready to make the throw-in.

not exact(!) quotation scince I'm translating from the swedish version

this is a very simple concept and situation that doesn't need debate...

during a throw in when a team can run the endline -- they can pass to anynumber of teammates on that endline and they (teammates) can run that endline. the only violations are that the player with the ball steps inbounds, a 5 count, or if a player misses a pass and it bounces in bounds and he touches it while still oob -- then you have an oob violation.

Gotcha...just wanted ironclad evidence before I showed the scribe the error of his ways........
