Hell, I don't put laser-like focus on the ball when I'm *administering* the throw-in -- I'm actually looking for illegal activity in my entire primary area, including violations by the thrower.

If you can't watch your primary and chop at the same time (using sense and peripheral vision) don't try something advanced, like chewing gum and walking at the same time.

As stated previously, I do it in both two and three person.

I can see the entire court, watch the action, and see the catch out of the corner of my eye if necessary. Plus, a good many times the ball is tossed deep in the frontcourt or into the backcourt where I have a better view than the L anyhow.

It is rare that T would not see the touch in the periphery. Opposite corner down low near the arc might be the exception if there is a lot of activity in between.

Then you simply catch and mirror the chop of the L.
