i feel like ray allen misses way more than 10% of his really late game free throws. i'm pretty sure i saw a spurs game against the celtics a few years ago where he missed both. the numbers probably say i'm just remembering the misses but it seems like a real thing.
I kind of hate the foul up by 3 in these situations. The most exciting part of the game are these clutch shots and it takes that away. I completely understand why a team does it, just ruins a ending.
did i just see that okc's 19 point loss is their largest in the last 3 seasons? they didn't lose by 20 in either of the last 2 seasons? wow.

That Bosh's FT brings back the good memory of Yao's intentionally missed free throw for Alston's 3 against the Lakers.
how in the world do guys make free throws they are trying to miss so often? is it really that difficult? maybe ray allen should try missing his late game free throws.
yeah i also don't understand why more people don't try to throw it off the rim really fast. it creates a much more chaotic rebound attempt and has almost no chance of accidentally going in. of course if you can't even miss on purpose then i guess expecting a fast chest pass to actually hit the rim might be expecting too much.
Looking at the box scores around the NBA, I can only say I'm so glad we are 2-0. It's definitely hectic at the beginning of the season. And I'm glad that our troubles haven't cost us a win yet.
Anyone watching the Kings/Clips game? The Kings may have had a better offseason than we did. The energy in the arena is ridiculous. Like night and day compared to last year. Team looks good too.
Really weird start to the season, philly 2-0 and beat the heat, lakers beat clippers, heat only 1-2, twolves blew out thunder.
