Our free throw defense was terrible today.
Insofar as the students are concerned, Iām glad they want chicken, but please donāt chant that when the opponent is shooting a one and one as its impossible to miss two in that situation. Also, please do not volunteer for the free throw shooting contest unless you have actually touched a basketball at least once in your young life. Thanks for attending, though.
Actually, It was more fun to watch poor ft shooters with bad form. Was kinda funny. Should change it up and add some āNiner celebritiesā in the mix.
I think a great timeout contest would be to put a single basketball at halfcourt, have one contestant on the base line and a second contestant in a knockerball suit on the opposite baseline. Both race to centercourt with one trying to pick up the ball and get a layup within 60 seconds and the other trying to lay him (or her) out on their ass.
editedā¦ Let me edit this. The person in the knockerball suit has a decided advantage over the unprotected contestant. Maybe the unprotected contestant needs a guard in a knockerball suit and the goal is to score a layup and a free throw within 60 seconds.
There would need to be rules of engagement with the shooter.
Just trying to mix up the timeout activitiesā¦
Yea, what could go wrong?
Beyond pisses me off to hear a silent halton get loud for chicken, damn chicken. Makes me laugh when it is for a 1 and 1 though.
If we can get to the last eight minutes of the game with less than 10 fouls (therefore the 1 and 1) it is already an victory. Chicken and cheering are bonuses.
