Wow Pacers Players Can't Make A Foul Shot ?

[BeenHereBefore]

I'm 55 and shot around months back one time and hit at least one of my two foul shots I haven't played against others since 7th grade. How does a Pro Basketball player not able to make foul shots ?

Did he miss them on the purpose cause the spread and won my bet by 1 point thanks to him?

I imagine shooting free throws in an NBA game, after running up and down the court a bunch, with fans siting behind the basket trying to distract you, other teams players chirping and the general pressure is slightly different than a 55 year old dude alone at the local ymca. (I also bet you're not hitting them at a 50% clip)

that said, it is pretty sad that guys can't all hit 80%+ when they get paid so much $$ to play it for a living.

Thanks and old and could hit more foul shots then some NBA players regardless of the circumstance.. Funny Alexander makes his with ease but others throw up bricks!
