Fixed it for you.
No one here has said they'd T for crossing the boundary plane. I would simply ignore that.
If a B player, after a B basket, throws the ball to the other endline, I don't care what part of the game we're in, they get the T.
If a B player, after a B basket, slaps the ball to the official with 8 seconds left, I'll bat it to the thrower and start my count when it's appropriate.
If a B player, after a B basket, grabs the ball and holds it with 8 seconds left, I'm just going to stand there and stare at him.
The threshold for a T on this case play is pretty high, even with under 5 seconds.
