Throw-in

[rab3838]

My question is...Can a player that has a spot throw-in bounce the ball before the throw-in?

[deecee]

What makes you think he cannot?

I had this happen to me on Sat. night and the Coach wanted a violation called, but I did not make it.

For rab3838, the answer is "yes". Absolutely. See the "NOTE" at the end of Rule 4-43. In fact, doesn't matter if it's a designated sport throw-in or not.

You'll find coaches think all sorts of actions are violations. They're rarely right. He's probably had it called against him by a brand new official.

Spot throw-in: What if the inbounder dribbles it off his foot and the ball rolls outside the 3-foot box while remaining out of bounds. Is it violation immediately or do u wait until the five second count?

Violation immediately.

[just another ref]

Okay to bounce it as long as he doesn't bounce it inbounds.

9.2.2 SITUATION D:

A1 dribbles the ball on floor on the out-of-bounds area before making a throw-in.

RULING: Legal, a player may bounce the ball on the out-of-bounds area prior to making a throw-in.

Wait until an actual violation occurs -- either five seconds or the thrower leaving the designated spot.

You're right, I was thinking of the free throw scenario. That's a violation immediately. This, you can wait 5 seconds or use the free throw as precedent.

Think there used to be a similar case play for a throw-in after a made basket that if the new offensive team doesnt get out of bounds properly to make the throw in and its apparent they cannot make the proper throw-in.
