Please cite rule regarding "immediate technical foul".

There are two:
4-37 Resuming-play procedure is used to prevent delay in putting the ball in play following a time-out or intermission as in 7-5-1 and 8-1-1. The procedure results in a violation instead of a technical foul for delay in specific situations.
AND
10-1-5b Team Technical
Delay the game by preventing the ball from being made promptly live or from being put in play. See 7-5-1 and 8-1-1 for the specific procedure to resume play following a time-out or the intermission between quarters. The procedure is used prior to charging a technical foul in these specific situations.
