Can a sub shoot the technical free throws?

[OFoley]

In an unrelated question to my last post, I wonder, the rule book gives this as a definition:

The free throws awarded because of a technical foul may be attempted by any player of the offended team, including an entering substitute who is replacing a player or designated starter. The coach or captain shall designate the free thrower(s).

>>My question is this, does the 'entering substitute' have to had checked into the scorer's table already, meaning he was going to enter regardless of the 'T'? Or, once the technical has been called, can the coach have a substitute check in at that time to shoot the free throws? Guess I basically want to know what is the definition of an "entering substitute"?

Thanks for the help!
