Incorrect. The rule says nothing about being entered. It says that the names and numbers must be summited or designate the starters. It says nothing about having to be written in at all. So in really you could have the names on a piece of paper given to the scorer. Rule 3-2-1.

As a coach, I keep a number of "starter sheets" in my game folder. Each has the players, positions (in case there is an announcer), and numbers. There are blanks at the top to indicate the game and date, and there is a column of checkboxes to indicate which players are starters. I have have that day's sheet already filled out, and I set it on the scorer's table when my team enters the gym to warm up. According to my read of the rules (and JRutledge's), this is perfectly legal. If the scorer prefers, I will write the names into the official book as well, but this way I have always provided them in the proper time frame.
