Team A only has five team fouls. A smart coaching move would be to put in a sub from the end of the bench and have him foul an opponent during the throw-in. Team A would then keep the arrow for the start of the 3rd qtr and Team B could only score on a tap on the final possession of the 2nd qtr.
Great strategy, but it would require A12 to know how to foul here. A bad screen would be perfect. Then of course make sure the officials know the rule.
