freethrows
If you have to be persuaded, reminded, pressured, lied to, incentivized, coerced, bullied, socially shamed, guilt-tripped, threatened, punished and criminalized...you can be absolutely certain that what is being promoted is not in your best interest

Don’t know but our average percentages (with individual exceptions) certainly don’t appear to be too “free.” Thus, I was surmising they must somehow be “contested.”

I will have to remember that one! I did coach with a guy once who liked to tell kids.... they are called “free” throws for a reason!PurpleOnWhite wrote: ↑June 13th, 2020, 9:03 pmDon’t know but our average percentages (with individual exceptions) certainly don’t appear to be too “free.” Thus, I was surmising they must somehow be “contested.”

"socks, shorts, one, two, three, swish." that was the free-throw chant iu fans gave alford's routine as he shot at a 90% clip. knight soon put an end to it though. cranky old bastard.

Why is there something rather than nothing?

We had a hypnotist come in one year and worked with the kids and our free throw % went up dramatically! But when a few parents found out about it they went nuts! And in hindsight I don’t blame them.
