Could the player, his coach, or a teammate call time-out while the ball is rolling away?

he could not call a TO because he is not in player control or the ball is not at his disposal

From Scrapper1 back on October 1:

9.1.1 has been changed this year. They added a situation where the free thrower loses the ball while doing his habitual dribbling before attempting the try. This year they're telling us this is a violation. If he muffs the pass from the official, reset and administer it again. But once he gets it, if he's just clumsy, it's a violation.

Good call. They have team control, but, as you stated, no player control (dribbling, or holding), or ball at disposal, nor is there a dead ball, the ball became live when it was put at the free thrower's disposal.

Next question, and I'll probably answer it myself in a few seconds; what prevents A2 from picking it up if it rolls to him and passing it back to A1?

Okay, checked the relevant rules, and there's nothing I could find which prevents a teammate (or opponent) from passing the loose ball back to the shooter as long as he shoots within 10 seconds of first receiving the ball.

Common Sense???

Just kidding, that spilled over from another thread.

Wouldn't it be something if A2 commits a lane violation while retrieving the ball and giving it back to A1....and then A1 makes the shot, which is then subsequently wiped away by A2's violation?

It would be something...a late whistle.
