    I think he just misspoke. I'm sure he meant the latter

    immediately thought of an article from a few months ago when I read this post.

    if it's genuine, then perhaps fans underestimate the pressure and rhythm of practice shots vs game shots.

    One of the Lakers assistants was talking about how Howard hits 82% in practices...and that it's a mental thing with him in games. Howard even said its a mental thing for him.

    If he can get that percentage to 65% in games, that would be unreal.

    Howard has shot 60% before. I think it was 2 or 3 seasons ago. He has the potential to do it for sure.

    playing at the speed they do against the physical athletes out there its amazing how a big man can shoot over 70% in game. It's so weird how a guy like Kevin Durant who isn't much smaller can be the best in the NBA at free throws.

    This video was hilarious. Dwight agreeing to do this was a little crazy.

    I'm pretty sure he actually said "You know something I don't?"
