I was thinking of the circumstances where the officials are not off the court due to the crowd rushing onto the court. Like I mentioned before, I'm not putting the full responsibility on the officials, as it also falls upon the game management & crowd control.
In the situation, like I mentioned before, the losing team is unable to leave the floor due to the fans rushing the court & some of the fans say something to the losing team that could incite a fight or other negative relations.
Couldn't rule 2-8-1 be put into use here? If the officials cannot leave the floor.
If the officials are off the floor, yes it does fall upon the game management & crowd control to get the situation under control.
