If the ball got 15 feet away, you could've blown the whistle and then administered the throw-in yourself, I guess. But I can't argue with the spirit of what you did.

I certainly don't think I would've had a 5-second call there.
How about a 3 second call?

Or maybe just start working on your football picks?
3 seconds in the lane in the backcourt?

You must have started your picks really early.
