I disagree, A is the synonym for the offense in any printed material that I've read, rules wise. And once B1 steals the ball he becomes A1. Much ado about nothing yet A/B for offense/defense is the common distinction.

You can disagree but that would be wrong. The basketball rulebooks use a similar philosophy as the football rulebook. Even if there is a change of possession in a play, the team still stays Team A or Team B throughout the description or case play. For one thing it would be confusing if you always changed A1 to B1 just because of a possession change. I bet you will not find one example in the rulebook that changes A1 to B1 or Team A to Team B because of who has the ball for the moment.

Also in some plays there is not an "offense" for the respective description. Some of the casebook uses descriptions of things Team B does and there is not mention of who has the ball or who has the ball is not relevant (e.g. Case plays in Rule 3).

This is not a major point, but what you stated is not correct.

Peace
