... A T is overkill for this. Some action is necessary otherwise we'll be there for weeks.

10-1-5b. Delay the game by preventing the ball from being made promptly live or from being put in play.
This article goes on to mention the RPP, but that doesn't mean it applies only to the RPP. It clearly shows that it's a T to prevent the ball from becoming live.

They're not preventing it. That rule is for when a player grabs the ball after a made bucket and tosses it into the stands or to the other end of the floor or when a the ball is knocked OOB and then do something similar. It's not for being in the wrong location when the ref has the ball.

Camron -- your lysdexia is showing. You've got your b's and d's mixed up. Item "d" is for "interfering with the ball following a goal after the team warning for this delay". I quoted item "b" which says nothing at all about a made basket or a warning. Furthermore item "b" does refer to the RPP which implies to me that it in fact applies to any time players are doing something which keeps them from being ready for the ball to be made live.
