I lost a game last year on a foul at the end, a make, a miss and a put back - with the FTs coming with two seconds to go. We called TO before the last free throw and discussed nothing but blocking out, and what to do with ball in hand, possession arow our way, and two seconds on the clock. With two players on shooter, she still got through and sunk the game winner, time running out just as ball went through the net. So I am one that likes to play them out and let things fall as they may.
If you have nailed threes on me all day, I might change my opinion.
And I share the opinion that waiting for rim in the low blocks makes it easier for the defense to get a shot at the ball. Release lets you get good position for the rebound.
