1. Allow the play to develope and give A the scoring opportunity, and tell coach B to keep his player in bounds. (they may just not know they can't do that)
2. Call a violoation on B immediately. Spot throw-in and possibily give A an opportunity at a defensive turn-over.
3. Ignore it if B wasn't affected by the violation. Still say something to A coach at an appropiate time.
1. Waste of time talking to Coach B over this.
2. Coach A is going to be pissed that you interrupted his offensive set and Coach B is going to give you a WTF look. And more importantly, my assignor would give you a HUGE WTF.
3. Just leave it at "Ignore" and you're good to go.

This important sentence is straight from the rules book and one people should reference more IMO:

"Therefore, it is important to know the intent and purpose of a rule so that it may be intelligently applied in each play situation."
