Botar is the synonym of brincar or rebotar;
And tirar is like trowing something like
I want to trow this paper (quiero tirar este papel)
And now how we use botar;
Well in a sentence you can say
Estaba botando está pelota(i was playing with this ball)
And the last thing,it's informal when you say tirar,but it's more formal say botar.
So the point is the two are corrects but you can use it in different situations.
