Yelling (can't think of a better title)

Not a fair comparison. You also can't play defense during a FT. The whole point of the free throw is that its a free opportunity to score. So that's why you can't yell during the FT.

As should be clear from my previous posts in this thread, I do not equate yelling with playing defense, however.
