Here, we sound the whistle, point in the direction, say the color, set the ball down, and start counting.

I'll wait a few seconds after the second horn, but if the team(s) make no attempt to come out of the huddle(s), I look at my partner, nod, and set the ball down. Teams know we do this, so we seldom have this problem.

What do you do when thrower-in stays inbounds so his team can set up?

I probably have a shorter amount of patience than some of my peers with this.
"Let's go, white!" If they still want to stall, I'm giving them another beat and then putting it down, whistling and starting my count. In my experience, that does tend to fix it after one or two occurrences.

Just please don't issue a DOG warning.

Similar to what Welpe already stated.

Just for yuks...

What if we have the obverse of this situation where the thrower-in delays returning to the court after completing the throw-in??

Noobs only!!
