    Why are free throws so hard to make...

    Free throws should be the easiest shot to make. No defenders, nobody running at you, and all the time in the world. FSU is killing me. 12 for 26. Not even hiiting at 50%.

    i agree......... it's bizarre how many players are bad at free throws.. i wonder if there are players who have better 3 point % than FT%

    shooting is a funny thing,

    i was raptor season tix holder and 3 guys remember clearly as being odd as far as shooting:

    1) Loren Woods - 7 foot 3 center from Arizona who never panned out. could hit 10 3-pointers in a row in warmup while talking to someone the whole time but couldn't hit an open 5 footer in a game.

    2) Jermaine Jackson - PG out of detroit........ very very high FT% but couldn't hit a mid-range jumper to save his life.

    3) Milt Palacio - fun PG - missed so many layups, although in fairness to him he created most of the layups. got to figure he heard footsteps and always went too strong.

    If they made them, gambling would be easier.
