With respect to inbounding after a tie up that goes to team A because de alternating possession rule:
If the inbounder A1 fails to get the ball inbounds successfully to a teammate, does the
alternating possession arrow stay with team A?
Under which of the following circumstances would team A keep the alternating possession
arrow in its favor:
1. A1 cannot inbound in five seconds.
2. A1 throws ball directly out of bounds without touching either team.
3. A1 throws ball off A2 or B1 then it goes out of bounds without possession established on
the court.
4. A1 throws the ball directly inbounds to B1.
Thanks.

Does B get possession and the arrow in its favor?
Circumstance 1= A1 cannot inbound in five seconds: YES
Circumstance 2= A1 throws ball directly out of bounds without touching either team: YES
Circumstance 3a= A1 throws ball off A2: YES
Circumstance 3b= B1 then it goes out of bounds without possession established on the
court: A's ball, B arrow
Circumstance 4= A1 throws the ball directly inbounds to B1. YES

Circumstance 1= A1 cannot inbound in five seconds:
B get possession and the arrow in its favor and
A Team Turnover
Circumstance 2= A1 throws ball directly out of bounds
without touching either team
B get possession and the arrow in its favor and
A1 Personal Turnover
Circumstance 3a= A1 throws ball off A2:
B get possession and the arrow in its favor and
A1 Personal Turnover
Circumstance 3b= B1 then it goes out of bounds without
possession established on the court:
A's ball, B arrow, Nothing for the statistician.
Circumstance 4= A1 throws the ball directly inbounds to B1.
B get possession and the arrow in its favor and
A1 Personal Turnover

To close this topic, some commentary about this rule, I
think must be changed:
Why the alternate-possession rule must be changed ?
• An inspired defensive effort by a trailing team should not be undone because it's
the other team's turn to take possession.
• An official's inability to consistently make a fair toss should not alter the rules of the game.
• The rule really penalizes a great defensive effort. You can make a great defensive
play but late in the game Team B forces a jump ball, an alternate possession goes to Team
A who scores the goal in the last second to win the game.
• When they try to make the game too fair, they take away the whole reason for
competing. It shouldn't be a 'fair' factor. It should be whomever is aggressive enough to
get his hands on the ball. That's the unknown about any sport. That's what makes the sport
interesting.
Why changing the alternate-possession rule would not be efficient ?
• For the same reason it was established the potential for a toss that gives one team
an unfair advantage over the other.
• A late-game jump ball, in an intense sequence, increases the possibility of injury
to officials.
• At least some advantage is gained from tying up the ball, even if it is only
reversing the possession arrow.
• The alternative is worse. In many instances, one or the other team has a dominant
big man who almost always controls the tip.
