It should have been a false double technical foul and the two teams each should have been awarded 2FTs in the order in which the fouls occurred.
I respectfully beg to differ, Mr. CumquatHead.

Were the techical fouls committed by opponents? Check!!
Did the technical fouls occur at approximately the same time? Check!!
Did the opponents not commit the technical fouls against each other? Check!!(only one of the "T"s was against each other, not both)

Sure sounds to me like it meets the definition of a simultaneous technical foul as per rule 4-19-10.

And there is also nowayinhell it can only be a false double technical foul. Did you forget the original personal foul on the shooter? It's a false double foul comprised of the original personal foul on the shooter followed by the simultaneous technical fouls.

And how do you administer this, you ask? There's no FT's for a simultaneous technical foul and you go to the POI as per rule 10-6PENALTIES SUMMARY 1(d). And in this case the POI is the first FT for the personal foul committed on the shooter as per rule 4-36-2(b). And you shoot the FT's with the players on the lane lines.
