Chit chat is really hard to judge. As others have pointed out in the past, basketball is not golf. If the defensive players want to confirm defensive match-ups or what play will be run next, I think that's legitimate and a FT shooter should be able to take a shot without being distracted by it.
If the chit chat is directed
at the free thrower, that's a different matter. Or if it gets louder just as the shot is released. Or if the raised arms are shaking in the shooter's vision. Those things are no-no's.
