NBA Case Book (2010-2011)

346. While attempting a throw-in following a violation, Player A1 takes more than one step, jump or stride from the original in-bounds spot before releasing the ball. Is this a violation?

Yes. On a throw-in, Player A1 is allowed no more than one step or stride as in normal passing movement.
RULE 10 - SECTION III - a (4)

347. On a throw-in, what determines the distance between the defensive and offensive player involved in the throw-in?

The defensive player must allow the offensive player ample room to make the throw-in when the area out-of bounds is restricted. If there is no restriction of the area out-of-bounds, the defensive player shall be allowed to come up to the edge of the line, making certain that his arms do not break the plane. The offensive player may back off to allow himself as much space as possible without leaving the surface of the court.
RULE 8 - SECTION III - a
RULE 10 - SECTION III - a (8)

Thanks, APG. Never thought to look in the case book. Do you have a link.
Any idea what the official NBA signal is?

The official NBA signal for a throw-in violation of the designated spot? There is none. Like I was saying, you'll most like see a point at the spot plus verbalization or the traveling signal (I, for one, saw Tony Brothers do this one last year).

There is no signal, probably because it almost NEVER happens, and the casebook is part of the Media Guide, which you can find on the website.
