Technicals, team fouls and bonus

The free throw penalty for a technical foul is 2 shots. Never understood why any official would try to add on the free throw penalty for a common foul.

That's why I always keep the explanation simple: penalize in the order of occurrence. The penalty for a common foul in OP is a throw-in. There is a subsequent technical foul prior to the throw-in. The penalty for a technical foul is 2 shots and a division line throw-in.

I wish officials would use proper terminology and eliminate extra verbiage when teaching, because is cuts down on confusion.
