I think this is where good game management comes into play. The first occurence of this will probably be a no call unless rebound comes to that spot. I will find that player and we will communicate that is not acceptable play to displace the shooter. I will bang the next one on that team. If I am near the coach, I will ask for his help on the box out.
This diffuses the situation with the coach and players. If the first one takes the shooter to the ground, different situation. You earn credibility with players and coaches. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
