Only 5 seconds is given to the player to throw the ball out of. At its half-court team in possession may be no more than 8 seconds. By the way, if the attacking team has passed the center line, then back to return it no longer has the rights. And most importantly - to attack players are given exactly 24 seconds. If they do not realize their chances, but did not lose the ball during this period of time, it goes to the opposing team.
