Do that a couple of possessions, and pretty soon that team has saved perhaps enough time to get at least one more possession out of the game.

Of course, when I see it done in the first half, I use just as many question marks as you did.
Any time saved by rolling the ball is lost by the A1 then having to return upright and rescan the court. Why not just run to that spot and have the ball thrown directly to you?
