TWEET!! 10 seconds on the free throw line. The gym goes crazy and the teams head coach wants a explaination. Told him that the thrower has 10 seconds to shoot the ball. He requests a time out to look up the rule. There it was. He shuts up and doesn't say another word the rest of the game. My question, has anybody ever had a 10 second call on the free throw?

While coaching 3 weeks ago, girl from opposing team continued to take a long time at the line - we were calling for the violation, but it did not come - finally, the fourth time at the line, at 10 sec on the dot...tweet... the opposing coach went nuts.... I thought he would get a T for second... I heard the ref say to him while coming down the court - "com'n coach - I gave you guys every opportunity to speed it up, now, you need to calm it down!"... he called her 3 more times that day....
