Obviously after a made basket when the clock is still running, team control starts when the ball is at the disposal. The b/c count starts when the ball is controlled on the court.
just for clarity from fiba:

28.2.1 Whenever a player gains control of a live ball in his backcourt, his team must cause the ball to go into its frontcourt within eight (8) seconds.
