Reminds me of a story I heard about the movie "Blue Chips" and a scene
with
Nick Nolte and Bob Cousy, who plays an assistant coach. They're in a
gym,
and during the conversation, Cooz is shooting free throws, and the
script
called for him to miss--but he was so ingrained to making free throws,
he
couldn't miss--even going to the other hand. They ad-libbed a comment
from
Nolte, and the scene ended up underscoring a basketball fundamental--put
the ball in the hoop.
