T for both teams to start game

[chartrusepengui]

We had our association meeting last night. Guys from two states attending. The following situation was discussed at length - sometimes heatedly.

At 16:00 min mark of warm-up period - A1 dunks ball. Officials see and administer a T. At 9:00 min mark of warm-up period - Team B1 dunks ball. Officials see and administer a T. Q = how to start the game.

Two camps.

1. Administer the penalties in the order in which the T's occurred. So B shoots 2 free throws, then A shoots 2 free throws and gets ball at division line with the possession arrow now pointing to B. Rationale: T's were at same time so not a double T.

2. Neither team shoots free throws as was a "double" T and go to POI which is a jump ball in this instance. Rationale: since both T's were for pregame dunks - it would constitute a double technical situation.

Where do you stand?
