Which sport requires more skill soccer or basketball?
Soccer by far.
The size of soccer fields are much bigger than basketball courts. Also the shape that soccer players are in beats the shape of some basketball players one to none. occer players also play for a total of 90 minutes while in basketball it is 48 minutes. ( In soccer only 3 players can be switched out leaving 8 players on the field for the whole game, where as in basketball you can switched out at anytime.)
Soccer is a combination of speed, endurance, stamina, skill, and teamwork. It is also a sport that uses strategy, strength, and your mind to find the best pass or to get around a defender.
Basketball is more of upper arm strength and how the NBA stars look, soccer is played internationally.
Both sports take a lot of training and skill however soccer has many more long term benefits.

Can a coach yell during an opposing teams free throw?
The non-offensive team may call a timeout during any dead-ball situation. So for instance after the first free throw (of two) or first/second free throw (of three) is shot, the non-shooting team could call timeout -- at least in the NBA. Not positive of the rule at other levels. Dallas in the 2006 Finals against Miami famously (and erroneously) called their final timeout after the first of two Dwyane Wade free throws, meaning they couldn't advance the ball to halfcourt after he took his second, if you want an example.
