Team A leads by 9 points with six seconds remaining in the fourth quarter.  B-1 is bringing th ball up court when he is fouled by A-1 with two seconds remaining.  The timer fails to stop the clock and the time runs out with the horn sounding.  After the horn sounds, A-1 and B-1 chest up and exchange words.  Several team members from each team come onto the court as do coaches and assistant coaches.  Some fans also enter the court.  No further animosities occur.  No one takes a swing at anyone.

Handle the situation.
