I don't even expect Manu to make two free throws in a row tbh. The whole crowd was cringing every time he was at the lone.
Ugh, tbh... OP needs to be pinked, his threads contribute nothing to actual basketball conversation.
Maybe Manu should try underhanded
Ask shaq for some tips tbhQuote:

He used to be ice from that line, at the end of the game when he was fouled I knew he was going to step up and hit them to ice it but nowadays it's always 1-2 it seems right on que. I miss that old Manu at times :(Quote:

He's been bad no doubt... but like I said earlier, it's amazing that at this stage we're still relying on a 37 year old to get to the line... we have many young guns, and nobody can drive to the rack and draw a foul. Pretty ridiculous, tbh...
It's weird, because he was pretty good last season.
Kawhi can tbh but the team doesn't know how to pass him the rock or atleast set a pick for him or even hit their fucking shots after he draws the double.Quote:

One they showed the replay in the arena and Hawes has his whole hand over his face...no-call. I think he decided to stop trying to draw a foul and gradually got less effective.
1 call they did miss. Everything else was called correct.

He had this same disease in 2012-2013 season when he was clearlly out of shape. But now he seems well and even when he started the season shooting 80% on FT he has suddenlly started missing a lot.
Hope he uses the ASB to regain trust in his ft shooting.
Had a good game today but damn, this shit can cost is playoff games
It has to be mental at this point, don't know how you can go from an automatic 2-2 at the end of games as a vet of tourneys and title teams to missing them though? I figured he would have ice in his veins from all of that combined? I guess it can happen to anyone.Quote:

His style of play will lead to free throws but lets not pretend that he is James Harden, Manu is 3rd on the team in FTA. Unless he plans on solely being a spot up shooter and no longer attacking the rim then he'll need to figure out a way to make them.Quote:

he's an old man. Everytime he's sent to the line I just already give up one of the FTs. So I don't get mad anymore tbh.
Maybe I'm remembering it wrong but it seems big name Spurs have always missed key free throws. Going back to the Admiral. I don't know how many of those were key playoff games but it seems like him missed so many key FT's at end of games.
