If you subscribe to the advantage/disadvantage principle, then calling this foul would be a disadvantage to team A - which is clearly unfair seeing that they are the ones who were fouled.

Even if this was called an intentional foul, it would probably put team A at a disadvantage, because the clock would be stopped, and team B would have time to talk and set up its defense and some sort of "Hail Mary" play.

I compare this to the situation where A1 is on a fast break, and B's coach starts mouthing off - wait until the basket is made (or missed), then give him the T.
