In general, you probably will not have one action alone since it is a collaborative act. Given that the rules specify an player technical for both halves of this type of act, I'd think that they actually are saying to penalize each with their own T.

Note, however, that the other collaborative act (locking arms to prevent an opponent from moving) is listed in the team technical section.

This is a case where I wouldn't mind whacking both players for such a stupid act. That mess ain't basketball and is usually only done in a rec type settings or when a game has gotten out of hand and players trying to make a travesty of the game.
