Let me paint a more vivid picture, imagine B34 just inside the RA, A34 (6'4")jumps up & over him with the rebound in hand. After purposely being backed out as far as one step below the FT line extended by a bent over B34 (bent over like all he can see is the floor--- no verticality whatsoever) A34 finally loses his balance (because B34 wont stop) & topples over B34 in the paint. They're both lying on the floor now.
Thats not a basketball play that I have seen.

It is a dead ball, sure, but if it has not been and you had made the only call, would have have called an intentional foul on B34? If not, then it doesn't become one because the ball happened to be dead. As such, you can't have a T. It is simply nothing.
You're grasping for a way to penalize B34 because your partner tagged the wrong player with a foul....the best you can do is make it a double foul.....sort of like a blarge...but a T is NOT the answer.
