I will raise my hand since this is something I do wrong every time in a high school game.

1st free throw - I will move back and probably have my inside foot on the line. I was told a few years ago that it is the women's college mechanic to stand next to the players.
2nd free throw - I stand about half way between the lane line and sideline once again with my inside foot on the line. A few years ago Dave Libbey mentioned this as the best position to see action on the rebound. Dave Libbey is great when it comes to the mechanics of the game. If you get a chance to watch him again this weekend watch his movement for angles. He is also an official, like TV, that will call any and everything no matter how screwed up it might seem to the general public. I like that!
