Not sure what you are getting at. Are you trying to say the same thing only different?

Yes and no. My opinion and philosophy on the arrow differs from the rules (although I enforce it correctly by the rules). I don't see this as a case of the throwin team "losing" the arrow due to the violation. I see it as the team having utilized the arrow and not taken advantage of it.

So the glass isn't half full or half empty. What is it?

I get what you are saying. As long as it works for you.

My feeling exactly. Nobody took the arrow from them. They were not robbed. They were entitled to an AP throw-in, and they received an AP throw-in. What they did with it, is their problem.

For some folks, it's not enough to know the rules. For some folks, it's also important to understand the rules.

As I tell my students: you've never quite learned the material until you have to teach it.
