Delayed Technical foul?

Sure. It wouldn't be THAT difficult to do a delayed dead ball situation ala hockey (similar to defensive FT lane violations) where the violation is called if the offense doesn't score in that possession. Possession would be defined as a trip in the front court in team control. If TC is lost, call the violation. If the ball goes in the backcourt and Team A legally retrieves it (i.e. they threw an errant pass, Team B touched it but didn't control it, and A regained possession) delayed violation is waived.

On second thought, never mind. While this sounds good on first glance, you have all sorts of problems with fouls occuring on either team, or violations occuring on Team A. If Team B violates (slaps ball out of bounds, e.g.), there's no effect to the delayed violation.
