It's round for a reason, coach...

I remember talking some time ago about a player rolling the ball down the court. Well, I saw it tonight. She rolled it past a couple defenders and around another before she picked it up. Opposing coach (ahead by 30 points) was jumping up and down and screaming (briefly, until I gave him The Look), but fortunately my partner knew the rule and nothing got called. I was thinking about it later, and realized that there was no team or player control (it was an inbound play) so there wouldn't have been any backcourt count. If they'd wanted to, they could have rolled it back and forth for the rest of the game. Couldn't they?
