Wow you really don't understand the game of basketball do you? I never said don't practice free throws. Honestly I was and am amazed you thought they don't practice enough! If you understood what I was saying its that all the practice in the world won't help unless you have the MENTAL toughness in the GAME to make the shot!
I would love to hear

But you said its 90% mental and only 10% physical, so why even practice them if thats the cae? Stop reading the grade school manual on how to shoot free throws. Im pretty sure Shaq has the mental capability to shoot free throws, but he just cant PHYSICALLY make them. As for Mick, hes a lame duck, we lose 4 more games, hes done.
Hellooo
You are agreeing with me then.
If free throw shooting is so much mental toughness and obviously according to you our team has little of...THEN WHY EVEN PRACTICE THEM AT ALL IF "ALL THE PRACTICE IN THE WORLD WON"T HELP?"
Get real, Mick has fault in that too. When Calipari was at Memphis there was issue with the free throw shooting. Guess who took responsibility?? Guess?
Here John Calipari!
OK, there is a difference from shooting free throws for 20 min at practice, to shooting them for 1+ hour! It doesnt matter if you shoot for an hour or 20 min, if you don't have the mental toughness to make them in the games it wont matter if you practice them at all of for 10 hours a day!
Franchise: If shaq had the mental toughness it wouldnt matter what his form looked like! I can show you hundreds of players who have horrible form but can make 70% from the line!
Second, I believe John "the snake" Calipari took responsibility because it's much easier for a coach to say "well we need to work on free throws more" or "It's my fault we dont practice free throws enough" than it is to say my players are weak mentally!
Lastly, I can only conclude that you haven't played the game of basketball at a high level. If you have then you would understand the art of free throw shooting and what it takes to be a great free throw shooter. I can tell you personally that teams I would be on would only shoot free throws for 5-10 min a day and we still averaged about 75% from the line.

How is this for detective. TheFranchise and ready2go have the same IP address and usually post within 2 or 3 minutes of each other. Go ahead and look.
Usually they feed off each other and back each other other.
The Franchise is so pethetic that he creates other names to agree with his opinions. THEN you actually make posts about how so many people agree with you!
You are the extreme fan that has little to no crediability because you have never given Mick a chance in 2 or 3 years and you will never give him credit.
Go ahead and tell me you arent all four people who agree with TheFranchise but you are. Also don't try to tell me it is someone who is living with you.
I have a feeling we will see you space out the two sn and no longer post at the same time.

It is you. This may not have been. But it is you. You always post at the same time and about the same ol stuff. I refuse to believe there are more people that believe in what your saying.

Its a college student. College students live with other college student. I honestly dont care all that much. But two college students who live together posting on the same website is not a stretch.
My intermural days of basketball have been over for a couple years now. I'v moved on to bigger and better sports.
