One thing I do during a timeout, when we have the first horn, I step in and remind the benches. When the second horn goes off, I remind them to get moving if they're not, and inform them that I'm not known for my patience. That serves as a vague reminder to behave themselves for the rest of the game, and not to push things too much. A little comes with the territory, but a gentle reminder will go along ways, and it needn't create a combative situation.
