    To be fair to Lin, 2 of those free throw misses came right after he fell hard to the floor after getting his legs taken out and seemed a bit dazed. Mchale should've realized this and called a timeout.

    Dwight is right. Our FT was terrible.

    Lin was terrible. Parsons event missed two in a row. Of course Dwight was in full brick mode.

    Sager: "What happened on that last play when Blake got open for the three?"

    Howard: "We had just talked about it (during timeout) before we got on the court, the guy just messed up on the play. It happens, we just have to come back on the next play."

    The guy have to Grow up.

    He missed 2 FTs after he got fouled hard. He was a bit shaken up after the fall.

    +1 dude does nothing but bash others, excluding Lin of course. See game threads

    Yes, he's really a goofy guy, not one who thinks thoroughly before speaking, don't take it too seriously.

    So true. Dwight's free throws were an issue in Orlando too, but they reached the finals regardless.

    Well I happen to agree. Missed 7 in a row: 2 Jeremy, 4 Dwight, 1 Parsons. That was pathetic.

    Maybe he needs to shoot his free throws granny style? It can't be any worse than how he shoots them regularly.

    agree with the OP. If he had even shot 50% (his career avg) we wouldve won this game.

    How is it that we had 50 plus free throw attempts and still lose?

    he's a career 78% ft shooter....he's not going 6-8,7-8, 8-8 every game. We all know Dwight cant shoot free throws so you're not surprised if he goes 7-13 or something.......you really werent surprised he went 5-16?

    Rest of the team shot around 77%. That's normal. No team makes every free throw.
