How about this? The pre-game time has expired. A-HC has his team in front of his bench or possibly sitting on the bench, coaching his team. A6 goes reports to the table and returns to his bench just like he would do during a timeout.
B1 shoots the two FTs.
A2, A3, A4, A5, and A6 enter the floor for B's throw-in.
As far as Smitty is concerned, A6 entered the game before the first FT.
As far as BNR is concerned, A6 entered after the game after the first FT.
BktBallRef calls the assignor the next day, scratches Smitty and BNR because they can't get along and he lives happily ever after.
And no, I couldn't care less if Team A is sitting on the bench while B1 shoots.
