What if enough fans came onto the court that it prevented the calling official (remember, a foul had just been called) from reporting the foul. That would certainly delay the ball from becoming live again. Can't administer the FT until the foul is reported. Just a thought.

Still can't see it doing it, in any event I think it would take one heck of a lot of fans swarming on the floor to delay the foul reporting.
Bottom line, nothing happens until the players line up for FTs anyway, so it's hard to justify a T for delay. Even if the delay is a few minutes to get the swarming fans off he floor.
