Freethrows

[B]Ok. I have 3 questions about free throws:
1) Can a player have the ball for more than 10 seconds? Say, he's standing on FT line bouncing it for 9 seconds and then for 3 seconds he's getting ready for a shot. I've read the rules and it's a violation, yet they NEVER call that.

Have you seen someone take more than 10 seconds? I count every time and I don't think I've ever gone above 7 seconds.

(I agree with the answers above, BTW.)
