Ok this (one of) my major issues.

Honestly say what you want about how we need a big man or a perimeter shooter, could we get someone who knows how to shoot a damn free throw? Look at this last night we were 18/30 from the line while the Nets were 24/29 from the line. That was enough to get it tied and go into OT. And looking at some previous games.
Bobcats 24/35 Celtics 26/29
Bobcats 18/25 Wizards 12/13
Bobcats 18/30 Cavs 9/17


To add to that we are shooting .693 FT Precentage while our opponents are shooting .753 against us.
I guess im still just bitter about last nights loss.

Uh...we theoretically have a "FT" coach...but for a professional-NBA BB team...it is hard to believe...I'll tell you my 18yr old sons take.."it looks to me like they don't give a crap"...

If he is correct I can't tell you the why...unless there are problems we just don't know about...I noticed early in the season body language (from other players) was not good towards Diaw...but this can't be the total story...but none of us really knows so anything is a guess...

please ya it helps to make free throws but the reason we are losing is because we have the weakest post in the league. diaw is is solid player but he is just playing horrible and provides no D in the post. Chandler gets dominated by any big man with decent size, and I thought he was gonna be okay here but all he does is dunk, drop passes, and block guards and got dominated. we gotta get a big man, larry knows it. it will happen soon

Your son is 18? I took you to be a younger guy lol




As for the free throw shooting, they're downright terrible. When my high school team didnt make our free throws we would spend however long it took after practice for the entire team to make 10 in a row. The next game.... we didn't miss a single one.

They need to just practice, practice, practice.

LOL...no...57 goin' on 58 in a couple of months...

...as for the FT shooting...I'm starting to believe my son...that they just don't give a crap...

[WarioVsMooChicken]

I play basketball at the YMCA maybe once a week, if that, and I can hit right at 70 % of my freethrows (I practice when no one else is there <.<). If I can do that, I don't see why they cant hit atleast 80%

[spectre]

I'm with ya...it pisses me off to no end. Missing the front end is pretty bad, but missing both and I want to throw something.
