Im in a position of the offense shouldn't be given a free pass/do over because one or several players can't make an uncontested 15 ft set shot with no clock.

The only real issue is teams doing it all game because a player is so bad at free throws, giving him free, uncontested shots is a good strategy. The problem isn't really with the rules.

Then you play defense. It's a game. If you over regulate it, then you start to make it scripted. Takes away from the purity of the game IMO.
