Rates on the court

Overheard during halftime at a recent game:

Coach: Michelle, so far in tonight’s game, you’ve made 3 out of the 12 free throws you took. That is a rate of .25 baskets per 1 shot. Or just 25 percent.

Michelle: Geez coach, that’s not too good. My free throw success rate is usually much higher. What should I do?

Coach: Well, you always shoot as soon as you get the ball from the official. Try to slow down to give yourself a few seconds before you shoot.

Michelle: Okay, sure! Lots of times if I slow down, I am more accurate!
