I shouldn't have too, but M&M can be mean sometimes; apparently just for the purpose of being mean. Kinda like the Joker.

I don't think Dan could find Iowa.

Hmm...and I get called the mean one.

(Even though I agree with your point...)

The FED rationale for all play including LGP is supposedly that the game should be played in-bounds. You...well maybe me...would think that that the same principles would apply to both guarding and screening.

Yet we still make throwins from OOB and allow the offensive team to be OOB durning the throwin...how odd!

Ruling: In (a), B2 is called for a blocking foul because a player may not be out of bounds and obtain or maintain legal guarding position. In (b), A1 is called for a player -control foul because B2 had obtained and maintained legal guarding position (4-23-3a)

Here is the KEY point that some just don't understand. It's all about LGP...you can't have it OOB. If the play doesn't require LGP, this case/rule is irrelevant and a player's location is not relevant regarding a foul.

#1...It's not. Any offensive player may be OOB on the throwin boundary following a made basket. There are no restrictions on why they are there...none.
#2. It isn't. The restrictions on being OOB are only for LGP...and screening doesn't involve LGP since LGP is a defensive requirement.

For all we know (and we're not mind readers), that player may be thinking they're OOB expecting to receive the ball from the teammate to complete the throwin or may think they're inbound sexpecting to receive the throwin pass. Unless someone can read their mind, you can't claim you know the reason they're OOB so they are there for an autorized reason.
