Fes 3-16 FT? Seriously?

[GoJazz]

I take my 7 year old to gym and he consistantly hits 5/10 FT. How can a professional player be so bad? Im not a Fes hater or anything I just don't get how you can suck so bad at something that isn't that hard.

Fatigue, lack of practice, lack of routine attempts to get adjusted.. plus a lot of guys just aren't that good at putting the ball in the hoop.

Fatigue - the guy plays 2 mins a game. Lack of Routine - He is a professional basketball player go to the gym and get your shots its not like you have another job. That leaves us with with Some guys just cant put the ball in the hoop.

Does your 7 year old hit those shots against the Dallas Mavericks?

Great post....

Not as great as your pointless rant about a player who hardly sees the floor. Garbage.

The same way Chris Dudley, Dale Davis, Olden Polynice were routinely such poor FT shooters. Doesn't matter how much you practice, some guys just have trouble with the mental approach to FT shooting.

Fes shot 56% in the preseason (with a relatively large sample size 14/25), so my guess is in the regular season he's feeling more pressure and resorting to bad habits and form when he's at the line.

Yeah, man.

Unless you play Fesenko 20 mins every game he is not going to shoot better from the FT line. Coaching 101

I think this has a lot to do with it.
