Regarding who shoots the T, make sure that if there were any substitutions BEFORE the T was shot, that you know which players had been substituted out of the game. They are NOT eligible to shoot the technical fouls.

This can be hard to determine if the T is called during a time-out, where there were subs at the table when the time-out was granted. (I.e., Team A has 2 subs at table when time out is granted. During the time out, Team B gets charged with a T)

Before you allow Team A to shoot the shots for the T, you need to find out from the Team A coach which players were subbed out. Anyone else can shoot the shots. Those players which had left the game can't return until time has run off of the clock....therefore, are unable to shoot (even if they are the team's best free throw shooter).
