All the T's offset.
Coach A needs to sit; coach B does not.
Add 3 to each Team's foul total (plus one more for B1's common foul).
Resume with whatever would have happened after the common foul on B1.

Original post says that B1 was disqualified but I didn't see anything in the narrative that stated B1 did anything more than commit a common foul. I guess we can assume he retaliated after someone took a swing at him.
It would seem the rulebook wants us to consider players that were on the court separately from those who came off the bench, no? The rule book separates "Players on the court" from "Bench personnel leaving the team bench during a fight or when a fight may break out" and determines the imbalance in the players from each of those categories separately? If we take that approach, I get the following:
First, the players on the court. A1 vs. B1, B2, B3. So wouldn't we assess 1 T to A and 3 T's to B? The difference then means 4 FT's for A for the 3-1 disparity in on-court players participating?
Then we'd consider players that came off the bench. A6 & A7. A6 participates, so T + indirect to coach for him; A7 doesn't participate, so T + indirect to coach as well (but max of 1 indirect for all players who came off but didn't participate here). 2 T's against A, so 4 FT's for B.
Based on what I read, I'd be shooting 4 FT's for A, and 4 FT's for B. The rest is the same as Bob in terms of coaches sitting and foul counts.
