While I'm waiting, I'll make a point. The only time you can correct the wrong team inbounding the ball is when the official doesn't hand the ball to the player.
Thanks, this is helpful. Are you saying that if I hand off the ball, start the 5-second count, and then realize that I've done it wrong, or perhaps my partner realizes I've done it wrong, I can't blow it dead and start over? Even if that's not okay, most of us would, wouldn't we?
If you realize your mistake before the throw-in is complete, you can correct it. However, when the throw-in is complete, it's too late to correct. 7.5.2b
