2 questions for Dan_Ref

1) Thrower in A-1 inbounds the ball to A-2. A-2 immediately passes the ball back to A-1. A-1 catches the ball with one foot touching inbounds and the other foot in the air over the boundary line. Whats the call in bounds or out of bounds?

2) Jumper A-1 taps the ball to A-2, who is airborne from the frontcourt. A-2 catches the ball lands with both feet touching in the frontcourt, then steps in the backcourt. Backcourt or no?

I want to thank Dan_Ref and the rest for all your help in clarifing the situations for me.

#1 is perfectly legal. He is touching inbounds and is NOT touching OOB. Therefore, no violation.

#2 is a violation, I believe. The rule allows a player a "normal landing", even if one foot lands in the frontcourt and then the other lands in the backcourt. But once both feet return to the floor in the frontcourt, I don't think he'd be allowed to touch the backcourt.

Did I miss anything? Untied shoelace? Decision from the Supremes? Group tree-hug?
