Id like to have the option to call it a T. Player might change attitude knowing he gets another he is ejected and suspended. As a practical matter, if a player acts up again after we call the double personal we can just call that flagrant and toss him. I havnt thought too deeply about it but not sure why they dont allow us to call double Ts.
As this play is described it could never be a technical foul.

4.19.5 A technical foul is

a. A foul by a non player
b. A noncontact foul by a player
c. An intentional or flagrant contact foul while the ball is dead, except a foul by an airborne shooter
d. A direct technical, charged to the head coach...in 10.6
e. An indirect technical charged to the head coach...in 10.5
