"at their disposal" position: if they have the ability to secure the ball, but, are choosing to let more time click off the clock and let the ball sit, I will start my 5 count immediately (its amazing how quickly the coach screams to get the ball in). Otherwise, I usually start when they break the OOB line(moving from IB to OOB to start their throw-in) with control of the ball and face the court to throw in. If, the ball unintentionally rolls away and will put B at a disadvantage, I blow the whistle to stop play to secure the ball (especially in close game).

Ditto.
