but the spurs really blew it tonight, while they were making 3 pointers and 3 point plays, we were at the charity stripe going 1 of 2 or 0 of 2, wtf is wrong with this team when it comes to free throws.

Chip England continues to steal money from this team...they could have a chimpanzee as their shooting coach and still be this awful from the FT line...

but the same guy helped tony with his shoot many years ago and now tony is money from long range - he was awful in that department as far back as 2005.

those are concentration gaps, etc

Congrats to Tony for putting in the hard work to get better...how about the rest of the team?

the rest of the team is probably the worst combined effort of any team still in the playoffs except for manu who's always money from FT stripe

Chip England can only teach form and technique. He can't teach mentality.

I think itīs fuckin shameful to be a professional athlete, and cannot knock down a free throw, you wouldīve thought you develop your shooting touch over years and years, just apply it while unguarded, fuckin simple.

If his teaching isn't providing results...why have him at all? A book or instructional DVD could do just as much and probably garner the same putrid results from the FT line.

Sometimes sports is just that simple. You make shots, you win.

Phoenix is not that good. I am still shocked we are down 0-2.

I beleive we have more talent, but they are obviously playing more cohesive ball....which means they are the better team...at least at the moment. I dont believe we are being outcoached or outplayed too badly, I just think we are choking. Not hustling enough, not knocking down easy shots & not hitting the FT's.

Its hard to say that we dont have the talent to match because then bench players that we do have are capable of playing well....I just can't explain where the shots have gone.

As far as FT shooting I wish Tim would have gotten some arc in his shot long ago, he has always shot a flat shot.
