#1) A1 and B1 get into a confrontation which is quickly handled by the officials without any penalties being assessed. A6 and A7 leave the bench and come on the floor. Official charges one team foul to team A, one indirect technical foul to the coach and awards team B two FTs. Is the official correct?

You have to give a team foul for each team member that's DQ'd, right?

I don't have my rule books with me but I believe that if players leave the bend and DON'T PARTICIPATE in the fight (or what ever confrontation is going on) the coach is only charged with one indirect T and one team foul no matter how many players come off the bench. Each player who comes off the bench IS charged with a FLAGRENT T and is ejected. At least that's the way I understand it.
You got the indirect part correct, but not the team fouls.

I bet you are thinking about the little note saying that the indirect T does not count toward the team total, it does not, but the individual T's do.
