My interpretation was that Team B had 5 seconds to properly inbound the ball and until the 5 seconds were up or I knew they had no chance of properly inbounding it, they hadn't advanced it up the court.
My partner after the game thought I should have called a violation. I have been unable to find it in the rule or case book to back up calling the violation.

This play caused quite a long discussion here many years ago. The options were (a) immediate violation; (b) wait 5 seconds; or (c) stop the clock and bring them back to do it right
The NFHS issued an interp (check the Past Interp Archive) saying (a) was the correct response.
