Game within the game. I shoot about 75% or so free throws. Pretty sure I could shoot 42% left handed. How are these guys so bad at it? Chinanu Onuaku should be laughing
I don't really approve of our bench (who can't even get into the game) laughing at a guy who has been a real contributor in this series, but it's not even close to the biggest disrespect. I can recall everything from players mothers being disrespected to racial slurs being used in NBA games. I'd have preferred if our guys were a little more professional, but this isn't a big deal at all.
Maybe so. But he is going to come up looking to clamp Harden down even more. If Harden does have a bum ankle then Game 5 could be a challenge. But one has to wonder. How the F can you be shooting 12% from the free throw line and 50% from the 3pt line? How does that work? Should he back up on his free throws?
Respect is earned. Thinking the same way. Knowing you're bad at free throws, having people publicly laughing at you will just make you tighten up more. Whether it's disrespectful or whatever, it helps win the game. It's the playoffs -- no room for being offended. If they lose again, they're gone.
btw: if Roberson sees them after the miss and it screws with his head that the opponent is laughing, then I'm all for it. Just no making noise, or distracting movement,,,,that would be wrong....leave that to the fans.
Scrubby Dekker, greasy Keith and the eggball Texans are not invited to @FTW Rockets FTW 's bday party?
This is such a small thing to b**** about. Plus it appears to be the younger dudes who dont get many minutes, so who cares.
???? Anyway, I still don't see where anyone was saying it was offensive. Of course it was disrespectful - all trash talking is. But I don't think even the twitter post was saying it was offensive.
