I guess you could make a case that a technical against a player is more severe than an intentional personal foul. Although the penalty on the court is virtually identical (2 shots and possession), the intentional personal counts 20% toward DQ while a player technical counts 50% toward DQ and at the same time 20% (if the other four fouls on that player are personals).
Of course, a flagrant is the most severe as it has the same penalty (2 shots and possession) but counts 100% toward DQ.
BTW - "DQ" is "disqualification", not "Dairy Queen" because if it was that, players would be trying to be DQ'd.
