Creative bunch.

They are behind the half-court line so we won't have 5 shooters.

They can still disconcert and they can still run from the other side to the arch

Why are they behind the half-court line? There's no requirement for that.

8-3
You could have 4 shooters if the first shooter injures himself during his FT
You could have 5 shooters if the defense violates on one of the shots.
No you can't.

I was going to say the same thing...but bob beat me to it. They must only be behind the FT line extended and outside the 3-point arc.

However, I wonder where this "behind half-court" notion started? Was this ever the rule?

Had this discussion last night with visiting coach. He was adamant that everyone had to be behind the half-court line. He finally understood/accepted the explanation after the 2nd explanation.
