Nah, that's akin to double jeopardy. (I realize I just set up Billy with a video embed.) Four free throws and the ball on one play? I don't believe that was the rule's intent.

I'd penalize the lifter. By this, you're discouraging the very act of getting on all fours, thereby nipping it in the bud.

If I had to guess, I'd say the dunker was the planner in most of these plays. AFAIC, just pick one; I'd pick the one who "did" the most.

1. A2 on all fours while A1 jumps off his back; I'll stick A1.
2. A2 lifts A1 with his hands, I'll stick A2.

In the end, it doesn't really matter. If I knew one had a T already, I might be inclined to give it to the other; but I wouldn't be overly concerned either way.
