Obviously the free throw problem has been beaten to death already but it caught my eye when watching Suns (why plural?) playing Blazers. Before shooting free throws, Steve Nash went through his shooting motion without the ball 2-3 times in preparation, which may not be unique to him but obviously says a lot about this focus and effort going into it. TT's problem seemingly is a matter of technique not focus or effort while the latter definitely is lacked for Brown and Hamilton, both of whom has no excuse not being 90%, many times those two just seem way to causal, especially the first shot. Checked his stats that were also mentioned by the announcers, his career percentage is 90% while barely second this season in the league.
Funny when I am typing this getting close to the end of the game in which Nash made a few crucial free shows to seal the deal, they showed a clip interviewing him about free throws. He said besides technique and practice, it is also important to be comfortable and confident out there.
Just wonder how many close games we have to lose for Barnes to get the team watching Nash making free throws or better yet, get him to mentor his fellow compatriots here.
