Crazy end of game situation.

I am not about to climb up into the attic, but it does not matter whether Team B has has received a delay of game warning or not. B1's actions are a technical foul charged to B1 for delay of game. There is a casebook play that addresses this type of action by B1 directly.

There is definitely a case book play on this. It says you can T immediately in this case.

Had a similar play a couple of years ago. Scoring situation is exactly the same as in this play. 5 seconds on the clock when the 3 went through. Leading team wouldn't even pick up the ball to inbound it. Trailing team tried to bat the ball to the inbounder, but the inbounder did an OLE and the ball goes to the wall. My partner T'd the leading team for "Unsportsmanlike" because they wouldn't pick up the ball. Fortuantely it all worked out, as all the shots were missed. We looked it up and found the case play.

To call a T on the inbounding team for this is absurd. They have 5 seconds to get the ball and throw it in. Refusing to throw the ball in is hardly and unsporting act. It is simply a violation. That's kinda like telling a football team that's up 2 points, with the ball, that they need to hurry up and score so the other team will get another chance to score and win the game instead of kneeling on the ball and letting the clock run out.
