Obviously, if the ball goes into the bleachers, or far off the court, they are allowed to get the ball.

With 7 seconds left in a tight game and the ball goes into the bleachers after a made basket...wouldn't we want to blow the whistle and stop the clock to give the inbounder a chance to retrieve the ball for the throw-in? (Even if they were ahead and didn't necessarily want us to stop the clock, I still blow the whistle and let them retrieve the ball.) Thus, not penalizing the team behind for the ball going in the bleachers.
