    It’s like the only time he gets beat is when he’s outmuscled or bites on a pump fake. Both fixes are just a matter of time and experience.

    Y'all will turn on Collins too. Once your expectations go up and you expect 25/10 out of Collins, you'll bitch when he only has 11/6. And so it goes.

    At least he doesn't judge players based off skin color that's excused with logic that is beyond flawed.

    Good point. We'll never win any championships until we replace Collins with Jackson.

    I think the most surprising thing is that Free scored 9 points, all on free throws.... How do you get to the line 6 times and not make a basket at any other time? Thats crazy.

    I still call him Lloyd. He had 170 games with at least 12 FTA, including one with 29 FTA.

    Free was 9-12 at FT in the final game. "He got to the line" might mean the 12 FTA, or maybe you mean he got fouled 6 times. I don't know how many times he was fouled.

    Blazers with three more FTA. The refs cost Philly a championship.

    It's exactly how it sounds.

    6 x 2 is 12.

    I dont care about all the other stats of his career, just that.

    Anyone who takes more positions than Mike Rice (that's for you, Snapper!), their mind has to move exceptionally quickly. It helps to have multiple personalities to cover all your bases. Two weeks goes by in the blink of an eye.

    Some fouls are 1-shot fouls, so since he shot 12 FTA, he must have "gone to the line" more than 6 times.

    Heh heh heh. If I can start a semantic argument, this will fuck up everyone's Christmas.

    How could he have had 1-shot fouls if he never made a field goal?
