I never shoot freethrows, never practice them, I am not a good shooter, but I guess I'd still hit 30% or more from the line no matter how exhausted I am. Why? Because this is a uncontested shot not far away from the basket.
So every professional basketball player should at least hit 75% from the line with the 25% missing being no concentration, being exhausted or the fans killing you in the arena. That would be okay.

Nope, that one has to go to Joey Crawford ejecting Duncan for laughing...on the bench.
