The team's action doesn't really seem like a big deal. However, it is a POE this year that players on the court must stay on the court, and bench personnel must stay on the bench. Leaving the bench area -- to go into the hall for a drink, or to go into the stands to sit with friends, or (I would guess) leaving for the locker while the ball is still in play -- is not acceptable.

I'm not sure that I have a call here, but I probably would have a brief conversation with the coach when we come out for the second half.
