Anthony Edwards on eliminating the step on his free throw (spoiler it’s Mark
Cuban’s fault)

“Some famous guy went on Instagram or went on a podcast and was talking
about my free throws and he brought it to the attention of everybody so I hadto change it”

On changing a free throw form mid career

“It’s hard but like as much as I be in the gym it shouldn’t be that hard
so like I try to shoot like 200 free throws a day”

Anthony Edwards 談到他取消罰球時的往前踩動作 (Mark Cuban 害的）

Anthony Edwards:「有個很有名的人在 Instagram 或某個 Podcast，在那邊講我的罰球，他把這件事弄得大家都注意到了，所以我只好改掉。」

談到在職涯中途更改罰球動作

Anthony Edwards:「很難，但以我在球館花的時間，其實也沒那麼難。
所以我每天會試著多投大概 200 球罰球。」

This has nothing to do with Ant. It was the fact that @NBAOfficials chose
not to make an easy call.

That's the issue. It's not Adam Silver telling them what to call or not.
They just decide themselves.

I brought it up to the head of officials when we played the twolves in the
playoffs 2 years ago. When Ant hit game winning FTs against us, and
obviously stepped over the line.

The people in charge of the refs ignored it. They also ignored it in the
L2M report. (Something they do a lot of )

But if you speak about it on NBA podcasts, that changes their behavior.

So many changes in officiating that have changed the game dramatically, likeusing contact to create space for a shot. That wasn't in the game till
recently. It wasn't a directive from Adam Silver.

All the fouls that started getting called mid season 2 years ago and have
accelerated further now so that FTs are skyrocketing. That doesn't come fromthe top. It comes from the officials. I don't even think it's an organized
decision. If they make a call, or don't , and they don't want it identified
as a miss, they just keep doing it.

庫班: 「這件事跟 Ant 一點關係都沒有。問題在於NBA裁判選擇不去吹一個很簡單的判罰。這才是重點。不是Adam Silver指示他們該怎麼吹或不該怎麼吹，是裁判自己決定的。

兩年前我們在季後賽打灰狼時，我就把這件事拿去跟裁判部門主管提過了。當時 Ant 投進對我們的致勝罰球，而且明顯踩線了。主管們卻直接忽略這件事。他們在最後兩分鐘裁判報告裡也忽略了。(他們經常這麼做)

但如果你在 NBA 的 podcast 上公開談這些，那就會改變他們的行為方式。裁判的很多改變已經讓比賽產生巨大變化，像是利用身體接觸來創造投籃空間，這種打法是最近才出現在比賽裡的，但並不是Adam Silver下的指示。還有兩年前球季中期開始大量吹的那些犯規，而且現在吹得更誇張，罰球數也因此狂飆。那也不是上面指示的，是裁判自己做的。

我甚至覺得這都不是什麼有組織的決定。只要他們吹了某種犯規(或不吹)，而裁判他們又不希望那被認定是誤判，他們就會一直照著那樣吹下去。」

他出手後身體前傾 所以順勢往前多踏一步 變成提早入場 但都不會吹

RULE NO. 9: Free Throws and Penalties:
The free throw shooter may not step over the plane of the free throw line
until the ball touches the basket ring, backboard or the free throw ends.
罰球者不能在球碰到框前提早進場
