There is a casebook play on this specifically...if the A coach earned the tech and team B is on a break you hold your whistle until the play is finished, but if it is his own team on the break and he earns it, get him immediately...if the shot is already in the air you can't cancel it, but if his player is at the free throw line about to go in for a layup you kill it...

That's why they call it a penalty right!

You earn your T and if the other team is breakin' they'll keep breakin and rub salt in your wound by scoring, then getting 2 and the ball.
