No one does.

They should tweak the rule, especially since off-ball intentional fouling is already illegal in the last two minutes. Sure “HEY MAKE THEIR FREE THROWS” but it doesn’t make the game any more entertaining and there’s already precedent of the league adjusting the rules to prevent such game-killing tactics going all the…

Foul shots are meant as a punishment for fouling. If they are no longer a disincentive than the rule needs to be changed. Who cares if they are “given a free pass.” I want to see people play basketball, not slap at a random person.

The “practice” argument is asinine because ultimately the NBA has to be entertaining. It’s why the NBA created flopping rules. They were perfectly legal, but audiences got so fed up with teams doing it (looking at you, aughts-era Spurs).

The tough guy talk on free throws is so lame and funny. The reason to change the rule isn’t to “protect” players, it’s that basketball is an entertainment product, and foul fests aren’t entertaining. Did you also complain about eliminating hand checking because it “protected” point guards? Did you complain about the…

And the thing is, it worked! From the beginning of the third quarter until Drummond was removed from the game less than three minutes later

Both were Dwight Howard. He shot 39 in a game in both 2012 and 2013. Made 25 and 21 respectively. In fact, the only one even close to it that’s not in the 90s or later was in 1987 when Jordan shot 27.

This is a dumb comment. Dwight Howard shoots 80% on free throws during practice. Drummond shoots over 70% on free throws during practice. The problem isn’t a lack of practice.

Drummond shot 36 free throws—the third most in the NBA in the last 50 years (free throw stats don’t go back farther)—and made just 13, for a ghastly 36%.

Yeah but besides that.

Quotes by guy who just got new job is optimistic about new place where he works who just gave him lots of money. Stunning revelation.

The funny thing about “The Process” is that it’s been done before. The San Diego/LA Clippers from 1979 through the Chris Paul trade in 2011 lost a ton of games, had a ton of early draft picks and still sucked for decades. All those draft picks are meaningless if you either can’t scout for shit(Lancaster Gordon,…

How did Chris Paul not get any votes?

Bogut has old man game, the dirtiest kind of game.

The three major failings of “The Process”
1) It believes the league will remain static to the strategy, providing labatory conditions. While in fact the league despises what the 76ers are doing and will continually look for ways to undermine it.
2) It’s a high-risk strategy, which will be hard to recover from if it…

It’s going to be amusing when Philly finishes with the second worst record this season and loses out on the Ben Simmons lottery to the Lakers.

More than a minute and a half to get into the end zone from the 1 while down two scores and under 3 minutes left in the game. I’m a Pats fan, but ye Gods, that just offended me.

This is both excellent Kinja and peak Patriot fan behavior.

CAN SOMEONE TEACH ANDY REID HOW TO CALL A FUCKING TIMEOUT

This was, by far, the Bengaliest way to lose a game.
