Nope. The 5 second count ends when the throw-in is released.

Warn him. If they refuse to play, issue the technical foul.

10-1-5
A team shall not:
Allow the game to develop into an actionless contest


If he continues this pattern, declare the game a forfeit.

5-1-4
The referee shall forfeit the game if a team refuses to play after being instructed to do so by any official. The referee may also forfeit a game if any player, team member, bench personnel or coach fails to comply with any technical-foul penalty, or repeatedly commits technical-foul infractions or other acts which make a travesty of the game. If the team to which the game is forfeited is ahead, the score at the time of forfeiture shall stand. If this team is not ahead, the score shall be recorded as 2-0 in its favor.
