How long do you keep calling it before you warn team B and assess a technical???? Can you warn team B there are making a mockery of the game at some point and assess team B a technical?? If so, can you help me where to find in book?? Thanks

With just 1 second left, A should just shoot the ball. B is *not* going to score. Plus, if A hits the shot, they are up 3 and the 1-in-a-million shot that goes in for B will only tie the game.
If B deliberately/repeatedly violates, I can see giving a warning for making a travesty of the game. I would say after the third time I would definitely consider giving a warning.
You could also make sure that B is in fact violating. Mechanics are to observe the lane across from us. We can only truly tell if someone breaks the FT-lane plane by being inline with the plane. Since we're on the opposite side of the floor, our perception isn't 100% on this call, and I just might misjudge if B entered the lane early or not.
