In my high school game, if an opponent is
screaming this from a marked lane space, or from behind the arc, or, possibly, even from the bench, while the free throw shooter is in
the act of shooting, and if I feel that this is a
distraction to the free throw shooter, I will call the delayed violation every time. If the free throw misses, we're shooting again.
9.1.3 SITUATION D: ... The free thrower is entitled to protection from being distracted. It is the opponent’s responsibility to avoid disconcerting the free thrower.
