Odd. I don't get it. Does this really happen as often as the questions about this situation that appear on the Forum? This question should come up once, or maybe, twice every five years. What's the rush to get the free throw taken? Don't most of us make eye contact with our partner before administering a free throw? And maybe make sure that we're on the same page: basket counted, or didn't count, number of free throws, shooter, clear lane and identify throwin spot for intentional, and technical fouls, etc. How can just the administering lead, in a two person crew, observe all ten players, on the lane, on the line, behind the arc, for violations? And possibly beckon in substitutes?
