I found this.
9.1.2 ...In this case, the trail official uses the resuming-play procedure even though the first spaces are not occupied,
whereas in other cases, the spaces would have to be properly occupied before the official would proceed with the free throw administration. ...
Therefore, if these players are not in the bottom spaces, this team is delaying the game by preventing the official from proceeding with the free throw administration. (Making the ball promptly live.) That justifies the team technical foul under 10-1-5b.
