Attach somet$$anonymous$$ng like t$$anonymous$$s script to your thrown object. T$$anonymous$$s would keep your camera 5 units be$$anonymous$$nd and 5 units above the thrown object. If you want somet$$anonymous$$ng more specific then please ask more specifically.

 public Vector3 cameraFollowOffset = new Vector3(0,5,-5);
 public Camera followCamera;

 void Start()
 {
     if (followCamera == null)
         followCamera = Camera.mainCamera;
 }

 void Update()
 {
     followCamera.transform.position = transform.position + cameraFollowOffset;
 }

have a transform storage variable, and before you do the following copy the current transform to the storage, and when your done paste the storage to the actual transform

@Maguire - you apparently pasted this C# code fragment into a Javascript file. The above is a fragment from a complete C# class.
