well, i don't play a particularly fast pace, play LI all of the time up to now because I don't really have the personnel to play any other way. I've heard talk about these shortened weeks, talk of the all-star week, playoffs and such. the allstar thing is only one week out of the season! doesn't seem to be much of an opp for FT training
It generally takes two weeks to get FT pops and it doesn't take too many FT pops to make a horrible shooter into a decent one. The maximum benefit per pop is at the lower levels - going from 10 to 12 isn't a big change, but 1 to 3 is. Somewhere there's a chart that showed the average percentages of FTs made by level, and I imagine someone with supporter and bookmarks may link to it.
