Play 1: can a player be ejected without technical foul called and shoot no fts?
A player could commit a flagrant personal foul and he would not be assessed a technical, but would be ejected; however, there would be free throws resulting. If you had double flagrant personal fouls, then there would be no technical fouls nor free throws, and both players would be ejected.

Play 2: a1 goes to table after time out warning horn. Shooting 2 fts to resume play.Doesn't sub have to wait until clock has started to become legal sub at next dead ball? These plays are from a fellow official.
The answer is no. The player can sub at the next substitution opportunity, which would be before the second free throw.
The restriction about waiting until the clock has started applies to a player who has been removed from the game and is wanting to check back in. He is not allowed to reenter the game until the first substitution opportunity after the clock has legally started. For example, if in your play A1 had come out of the game prior to the timeout being called, then he would not have been allowed to enter until the first substition opportunity AFTER the clock has legally started--regardless of when he tried to check in as a sub (before or after the warning horn, between free throws, or after the second free throw if successful).
