I would get the guy that jumped on his back because he did not have to jump on the guys back. Then again you could get the player that is the bigger jerk.

Do not complicate issues, give one T and move on. You really have an option in these cases. It is just a basic loophole in the rules as many things are.

Nope, got to do it by the book 100 percent.

While I said I actually wouldn't mind getting both players on this play, in reality, I'd pick one of the players.

Last time this situation came up, didn't somebody joke that not only would they T both players for the lift, he would also T the shooter for dunking a dead ball?

3 technicals, a disqualification...and you haven't even whacked the coach yet.

How about a fourth T...for failing to give the ball immediately to the nearest official when the whistle blows...then forfeit the game due to repeatedly committing technical foul penalties.

Read my post again.....I clearly said they could have sub-sections to define different lengths of of games and such.

That is the only option or you are making up the rules as you go along!!!

My comment was partly an observation of games that I watch with friends. We're not too concerned with missing 2nd and 3rd quarter action, because so many games are tied (or very close to it) with 2 or less to play - which is where lots of great action is.

Yes, FIBA advances the ball under 2 minutes.
