Game objective is to win the game. Ever consider the possibility that retaining possession would be more advantageous than shooting a free throw?

Why not give the coach an option?

Ugh if thats your argument then i cant discuss it. Its a game of skill...you have to put it in the basket more than the other team...without the objective of putting it in the basket teams mine as well go for touchdowns and drop kicks. ...what a lazy statement....every sport has an objective..yes winning i what u want to do but that isny the objective of the game itself...wanting to win and shooting a puck in a soccet net wont get you anywhere

Because Free throws, just like any shot are a chance to score. Possession is absolute and gives an unfair advantage to the team gaining possession of the ball.
