This may be one of the very few times having identified, and addressed in the pre-game, team captains comes in handy. Can't say I've ever done it myself, usually because the comments are best addressed once they occur, but I can see when you involve the captain in getting their team to stop trash talking.

Nip it. Nip it in the bud.

Seriously, catch it early, and like JRutledge stated, it doesn't have to be a handled with a technical foul, just a simple, "Hey guys, cut it out", will often suffice.
