He was the inbounder, and the foul was immediately after the pass. How are you going to give it to him for the freebies? If you want someone else inbounding, who??
No. Both inbound play was from around half court. And Yao was standing 20 ft from the basket with one guy behind him.
It's ok. It happens. You can't expect to make everything. Could have easily been Yao ming who missed at the end. But Great job with the win.
Then it was because Yao if he catches it gets fouled immediately. If Brooks catches it on the run(he had to jump to get it so had to slow down) he catches it and can run down the clock.
WTF? how is this a five star thread? The title was so frekin obvious that this thread is so dumb if it does not provide sarcasm or a joke of some sort. The five star definitely tricked me into clicking it. Stupidity.
The Rockets pgs and Brooks in particular need to start hitting their damn free throws. Quit giving the other team a chance.
Why Rick trusts AB so much? Coz he is Houston's future. After this series, Brooks will be much better next season, he will get 18+ points, 3+ rbs, 5+ assits next season.
So i guess no one remembers the dallas series when yao and tracy was bricking free throws in the 4th qt? What about big game james worthy in the 84 championship vs boston bricking free throws. What about Agent 0 against Lebron? It happens and u grow from it.
It was a 5 star thread because people that hate Aaron Brooks rate it that way, since this is a slight dis on his FT shooting abilities. Anything that disses Brooks gets a high rating...(at least until the people that know basketball and watch the game chime in and vote)
In fact, it's Battier and Artest's assistance help YAO out of fronting and doubleD, instead of AB and KLowry's responsity.
The pressure isn't the 2nd free throw after you made the 1st. The pressure is the 1st one that he has made every game. All he needs to do is shoot it softer and will get the roll, bounce, or swish. He's actually calmer on the 1st than 2nd free throw.
np, kyle lowry missed his 2nd intentionally, brooks 2nd miss could've made it a 5 pt game........instead it stayed at 4, and fernandez hit a 3 to cut back to 1, thankfully for us, Blazers ran out of timeouts.
