The ball doesn't have to be in the inbounders hand to be at disposal, yes? Thus, can still be a live ball. Depends where the ball is.

This WAS right after the basket, and contributed to my reluctance to whistle a dead ball foul (= T) that would have been the player's fifth ("make the 5th a good one".

If you're going to consider such a period a dead ball for the purposes of allowing the scoring team to request To, then you have to consider this sitch a dead ball as well.
