Has anyone ever called this? Give details.

Juulie, I've never called it nor seen it called. However, this reminds me of a college player I knew who had an unusual technique in shooting free throws. He would shoot the FT in 2 movements - he would first tense his body into a shooting position (sort of get set), pause ever so slightly, then shoot. I always wondered if an official could construe this as a fake - but I never saw it called on him. Thoughts?
