There is no reason to give a "T" if the ball is not inbounded with in the 5 sec allowed.
There is a very good reason, and that is that the rule book requires it when the Resumption of Play Procedure is in effect. There is no judgment required. There is no option.
Not the first time. Just a 5 second violation. The 2nd 5 second violation warrants the T here. I think it's safe to say that a 2nd violation would take some serious unsportsmanlike defiance.
