I'm up in Memphis visiting family and a couple of us went to Memphis/Toronto game tonight. Joey Dorsey bricked all of his FTs and at one point the team FT% for Toronto was 25%. That got me thinking, what is the lowest non-zero FT% an NBA team has ever put up in a game? It was crazy because Toronto shot 50% from the field but only 35.7% from the FT line.
i think we got pretty close 2 years ago? where we almost or tied a NBA record for missed free throws to start??
I remember the game against Detroit in 07-08 where EVERYBODY was bricking. It was so bad that Stevie Franchise was covering his eyes during each attempt until we made one. To make things worse, they were wearing their throwback ketchup and mustard.

Rockets had a home game against the Pistons on national TV about 4 years ago where they missed an incredible number of FTs but still won the game. It was funny.
At least 20 free throws attempted (since 86-87): http://www.basketball-reference.com...comp=gt&c4val=&order_by=ft_pct&order_by_asc=Y Magic had a 6-23 shoot game. Against Detroit a couple years back, we were 6-22. That was nuts.
