The Barnyard's summer homework

[From the Barn]

Find a way to distract free throw shooters. Somehow, some way, a team needs to miss some clutch free throws against us.

There is no such thing as distracting Free Throw shooters. Getting distracted is 100% on the player at the line and 0% on the person doing the distracting. You could get distracted by the shot clock in an empty arena or you could be completely focused with bombs going off.

I vote everyone finds an app for their smartphones that turns the camera flash into a strobe light.

Howso?

I actually saw a study done on the NBA a while back.....home teams FT% is less than 1% better than the road teams over the course of a season.
Road teams actually had a better FT% late in "close" games.

That's the NBA - an individual sport where the outcome of the game really doesn't matter.

Better homework for OUR players...............practicing free throws.

A) What a seriously generic comment that has absolutely no basis in fact.
B) Not sure what your point is? Even if the games didn't matter, why would that affect the variance between road and home FT shooting.

Really. Try harder.
