Well, the first thing that I'd say is that you're shooting at the wrong basket if team A is shooting at their own end of the court in front of their bench in the second quarter. They should be shooting at the other end- and should have done so the whole first half. What are they doing there?
Secondly, there is no violation for walking OOB down the sideline while a FT is being taken in front of your bench by your own bench members. You can't have any player in this situation in-bounds though, if they're below the free throw line extended or inside the 3-point arc- as perR8-1-5. Is that what you were thinking of?
