When I'm asked by a coach why his player isn't getting free throws after he's fouled "on the floor coach" always ends the discussion. To me that slang is worth using.
Here's one - you walk into the FT lane, hold up 2 fingers and shout "TWO" then as you're waiting for the first FT the guy standing next to you turns his head and says "how many ref?" While it doesn't exactly drive me nuts it continues to amaze me how often this happens at every level.
