Regarding "allowing the game to develop into an actionless contest". (I take this to mean an unsportsmanlike delay of game)
Rule 10-1-5 d:"Contact with the free thrower or a huddle of two or more players in the lane by either team prior to a free throw following any team warning for delay."

1. Wasn't this a POE a few years back?
2. Do you all have this as an issue in your areas, if so how do you handle it?
3. Would a correct interpretation of this rule be: Huddle if you dare; but if you get a warning for huddling or any other warning: your next huddle will cost you a "T".

Also, why is contact with the free thrower in there?

All I will say is do not get me started on this FT horse manure that has been going on since before the rule was adopted.
