I walked into the teeth of this question several years back.
9-1-3c says, "No opponent shall disconcert the free thrower."
To some, that leaves the door open for penalizing those on the bench of the other team who disconcert the free thrower.
To others, such a violation can only be committed by an opposing player on the court, with an unsporting T, if merited, on the bench for the distractive behaviors you describe.
What's your interpretation?
