Seriously? I just don't understand it. You practice it and you perform.

It's inexcusable. Usually poor free throw shooting falls on the coaching.

Who is "we"? Simmons missed 9 FTs.

Oh, God damn...quit blaming everything on coaching. It's fundamentals. Did you ever play basketball? At a very early age, coaches tell you two things win games: defense and free throws. These kids should be able to shoot free throws in their fricking sleep...especially our guards.

CJJ doesn't shoot the free throws - the players do. That's something that if you suck at...stay in the gym until you improve.

That was embarrassing to see that many missed free throws by our best player.

Well obviously they don't practice shooting free throws. More interested in the 3-point shot

Is there anyone on this team that shoots FT over 70%?? It's crazy.

Simmons is the most anti clutch player for a guy that came in with so much hype

The most elementary part of the sport. Lock them in a god damn gym and let them figure it out.

Hell Victor is all of a sudden the best free throw shooter on the team. Maybe the whole team is tired of hearing Simmons, Simmons, Simmons, regardless of the outcome of the game. Just so frustrating to watch these guys play.
Another awful display of defense again.
