OK, but I think you could have made it clearer for many of us in the first post, making your free throws is not the same as getting to the free throw line.

The general consensus is that, for a player to create a lot of free throws, he must be dominant offensively against the person assigned to guard him. Overmatched players tend to foul the opposing players more in the act of shooting. But it can happen that it doesn't have to follow that pattern all the time, sometimes they just get random amounts, sometimes too much, or too little without any data we could analyze.

In addition to that theres the "aggressiveness" that every players has. An aggressive player tends to commit more fouls and that'll lead to more FTs for the player he guards.
So many variants --> very difficult to predict any numbers of FTAs.

I agree with this. I think it's a weakness in the engine.
