Technical Free Throw Procedure
So there was a question on the test that there was confusion. While a player is attempting the free throws for a technical foul, the other nine players must be behind the division line, in the offended team's backcourt. Is this statement true or false. Alot of people said false, they do not need to be behind the division line. A couple of us thought it was a true statement. One person that said it was true read it in the book but then he forgot where it was in the book.

Ask yourself this...what are the requirements for players not in a free throw lane space? Answer that, and you will have your answer for technical foul free throws.

He must have read it in a book of incorrect rules. It is a common misconception that players who are not allowed along the lane must stand in the back court during free throws of any kind. This is wrong. They must only be above the free throw line extended and behind the 3 point line.
IOW - the test question answer is FALSE.

This Looks Like Another Job For The Mythbusters ...
For free throws when there are no rebounders in the marked lane spaces, i.e. technical fouls, the nine nonshooters shall remain behind the free throw line extended and behind the three point arc.

Which is just a special case of the regular ol' rule that if you're not the free thrower and you're not in a marked lane space, then you must be above the free throw line extended and outside the three point line.

Well, it sureashell isn't a "blarge". There's only one official in the world that thinks that's a myth.

We could discuss it further. Maybe everybody else would see the light.

Yup, that is a big myth and the players seem to automatically walk that way during this time. I am guessing since the ball is placed at half court after the TF, then everyone assumes that the players need to be in that area.....just my 2 cents.

I'll grant that there's a finite, non-zero probability of somebody else agreeing with you, but it's vanishingly small.
