You don't need to wait for them to set up the offense / defense, but you also don't want to give the other team an easy basket or create a 5-second violation.

That only works if they are a little slow early. The last time I had to use the ROP they weren't slow at all until they were a lot slow late. The problem with the idea of needing to get it early if you're going to get it late is it doesn't always happen early.
