Out of bounds “5” count

I also start a count. I also start a count if the team entitled to the ball delays after a timeout.

Sounds like a plan.

After a timeout, I'll be sure to sound my whistle extremely loud and long, make an exaggerated move to put the ball on the floor, preventing it from rolling away, take an exaggerated step back, and make an exaggerated counting motion, maybe a little slower than my normal count. If I get to five, I'll call the violation, that's the rule. Bottom line, I'm not in a rush to call a violation, but I want everybody to know that I'm not going to wait forever.

I need to clarify something. Is it true that this procedure can be used for any delayed throwin situation, not just one after a timeout, or intermission?

4-38: The resumption-of-play procedure is used to prevent delay in putting the
ball in play when a throw-in team does not make a thrower available or
following a time-out or intermission (unless either team is not on the court
to start the second half) as in 7-5-1 and 8-1-2. The procedure results in a
violation instead of a technical foul for initial delay in specific situations.

Note the word "or".

the "or" is clear and correct.

Thanks.

Again to clarify, how about in a delayed free throw situation (defenders ready)?

After a time out, or intermission, in a delayed free throw situation (defenders ready), put the ball on the floor and start counting ten?

Any other (not after a time out, or intermission) delayed free throw situation (defenders ready), charge a immediate technical foul?

I'm 99% sure that I'm correct, but can an esteemed Forum member please confirm?

Check your case book. It's there. (or was in 2016-17, the version I have handy)

10.2.1 SITUATION B: The ruling official has reported the foul and is ready to administer the free throw. Free thrower A1 is: (a) huddling with teammates by the team bench area; or (b) is in the semicircle, but teammates are huddling in the lane area. RULING: A technical foul for delay by A1 in (a). In (b), Team A is warned for delay. In (b), if Team A had been warned previously for any delay-of-game situation, a team technical foul would be charged. (10-1-5d; 10-3-5c)

I will give them a verbal let’s go then the count starts. Usually not a problem in high school, youth league it’s a problem. First time you get a turnover with a five count they seem to get motivated quicker.
