Ok, here's my attempt. What actually happened:

1) common foul by A1
2) attempted kick by A2
3) ball thrown by B2
4) B6 comes off bench and "engages" A3.
5) B6 re-enters court and pushes A3 to the floor.

#1 is just a common foul. No sweat.
#2 is considered fighting (10-17-1b). Flagrant technical foul.
#3 is a flagrant technical foul. It doesn't seem to fit the defintion of fighting, however; unless any retailiation during a fight is considered fighting.
#4 depends on what he did to "engage" A3. If he fought, then eject and charge a flagrant technical foul. If he did not fight, then simply eject him with no technical (10-18, AR 19; pg.147).
#5 is definitely a flagrant technical. If it's just a push, then that's it. If he "struck" A3, then it's also fighting.

It sounds to me like #2 and #3 are not simultaneous. So I would administer these as follows:

Eject A2, B2, B6. 2 FTs for Team B, then 4 FTs for Team A and the ball to Team A at midcourt. If you decided that #4 was fighting, then it's actually 6 FTs for Team A. You'll have to decide from your own judgment of the action how many fighting penalties there will be.
