JokersWild24 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Free throw shooter has 2 shots. Makes the first. Everyone steps in to give him a high five, usually having the shooter move from his position. Is it just me, or should more coaches tell their kids to let someone who has just hit one stand in their same place and get the ball back as quickly as possible?

But it's become a culture now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEERFAN Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 The nail mark doesn't move so it really doesn't bother me much. I prefer to step away from the line and reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stepping into the lane discourages that, so it doesn't bother me at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InItToWinIt Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Doesn't bug me at all. I actually prefer it because if the player makes the first one you want him/her to "do exactly what they did" on the 2nd shot as the 1st shot. Including the "walk-up." JMO.
