Who do you like to win tonight and why? Not necessarily who you are rooting for.

f you are Doc Rivers do you bench your star pt. guard at the end of game 7 vs. Lakers. Shooting 25% in the finals is piitiful. A free throw shot can make or break a team…and win or lose a game. Even the best players can be poor foul shooters. But can you as a player, coach, or agent afford that? When it comes down to the line, is your player a liability?
If your player is shooting 75% or less, it’s just not enough. At the end of the game, if your player is on the bench instead of on the court, it’s time for a change. It’s time to see the doctor…The Foul Shot Doc.

So.. who’s gonna show up tonight? For LA, will Kobe try to do it himself? Will LA use the triangle and/or work it down low to Bynum and Gasol? Will Bynum get more than 1 rebound? Will Artest be Jekyll or Hyde or both? For Celts, will Ray Allen shoot blanks or set records? Will Celts bench outplay LA in LA? Will Rondo and/or Perkins miss clutch free throws? I would love to see Game 7.

Ever wonder why “Bigs” can’t shoot foul shots? It’s simple. Since they were little or should I say young kids they were always told to stay near the basket by their coaches, me included, to get rebounds. There were other average sized players to dribble the ball and shoot from the outside. Consequently, they were told NEVER to shoot from the outside and all their shots were a few feet from the hoop.
When they were fouled, all of a sudden they were forced to shoot from 15 feet away, where they rarely practiced from with all eyes on them.
It is hardly a surprise that they were not successful

Celtics Rajon Rondo’s foul shooting is getting worse and worse in playoffs. 1st rd. 83%, 2nd rd. 65%, conference finals 57% and at halftime in game 4, shooting 4 for 15 under 30%. Lakers should foul him any time he is near the basket.
