Try rule 5-4-1--"The referee shall forfeit a game if a team refuses to play so after being instructed to do so by any official." Extreme? Yes. But if the defense refuses to play by committing repeated FT violations, you can just tell them to cut the nonsense out, explain the facts of life to their coach, and if they still don't want to listen to you, oh well....
