Free throw question

[Mark Padgett]

Brainbrain - where are you getting this? My 2004-2005 NF book clearly states (NF 8-4-c) "During a free throw when lane spaces may be occupied: The second marked lane spaces on each side may be occupied by teammates of the free thrower" and NF 8-4-d states: "...The third marked lane spaces may be occupied by opponents of the free thrower".

The language always says "may". The actual number of the spaces in not stated in the way you have it and the use of the word "may" does not mean "must".

AHA - I notice you deleted your recent posts while I was typing. You know - the one that said "or am I wrong again". Apparently, you realized you were.
