Naw, no need to be careful imo. That case book play sez all team members are bench personnel during an intermission. Rule 10-4-1 sez that bench personnel shall not commit an unsporting foul. I really don't know how anybody can say that a knock-down drag-out fist fight out on the court
isn't a flagrant unsporting act. Just follow the rules- 2 flagrant technical fouls under 10-4-1 and 2 indirect T's to the head coach. Start the next half with 4 FT's followed by a throw-in for the T's, and also charge that team with 2 fouls towards the bonus in that half. The arrow doesn't change. Your butt is covered under the rules. Write it up after the game and let whoever is responsible for that league deal with any further discipline.
