FWIW - Here is my 2 cents on this. Since there is nothing specific in the rules covering it I would be hesitant to call a T for Ball, Ball, Ball. Even the warning could be considered out of line with the rules.

All this being said I did have a similar situation years back where I did flagrant T a girl. She would scream in the situations we are talking about. No words but just screaming. I did tell her that she should play ball and cut the theatrics but it was to no avail. I had to calm the opposing coach over the situation at one point. Where the line was crossed is when she screamed at the top of her lungs a few (very few) inches from, and directed to, the ear of the dribbler. As I told her coach this had now become a safety issue and I was not going to jeopardize anyone’s hearing. To his credit all he said was OK.
