The restrictions that come into effect once the ball is 'at the disposal of the shooter' are as follows:
Players in marked lane spaces may not enter the lane until the ball touches the rim.

Rim or BACKBOARD.

Excellent point RecRef, I cringe everytime I either watch or work a game where the ball hits the backboard and beofre it hits the rim the players move and one of the officials or my P calls a violation. It's made some interesting half-time/post game chats over the years.
