What I've noticed on free throws, sometimes they step to the line and as soon as the referee hands them the ball they immediately shoot. They need to take a second or two to focus before they take the shot.

Shooting free throws is similar to putting in golf in that it's all about finding a routine that works and repeating that process exactly. There's no set way to go about it, each player is going to have their own routine - how many bounces, spinning the ball or not, finding the laces, when to look at the basket, etc. - and they have to repeat that routine every shot. The best FT shooters do that with the most minimal of actions and movement in the shooting motion.

That's exactly what I was trying to say, just didn't expand on it.

Knecht really is a remarkable offensive talent. In only 28 games he has scored 30+, 6x which is ridiculous. Grant Williams scored 30+, 5x but that was over 104 games. Lofton eclipsed 30 pts 9x but that was over 128 games. Allan Houston had 23, 30+ games over 128 games. Only Bernard King who was ungodly in college exceeded 30+ at a faster rate than Dalton. King did it 26x in only 76 games.

Glen Rice had the best NCAA tourney run I have ever seen in 1989, when he averaged 30+ for 6 games. Knecht has this in him.
