How to use free throw in a sentence?
He’s another big that we really needed, we were thin on big men and he came in and did his thing. We can feed him in the post and he’s a great passer. He can shoot the ball and get to the free throw line. He can do a lot of things and he’s still a force.
Have pride, keep your man in front of you, don’t allow them to have easy looks, don’t allow them to get easily to the free throw line. Rebound the ball. Make sure when we miss or make shots, you got to box (out). The little things add up in 48 minutes and then you’ll have the result of being good on defense. But if you let the guy shoot an open 3 then let somebody go backdoor, let somebody get offensive rebound then throw it to the 3-point guy so he can knock down the 3, all that builds up and you have a bad night.
Last game he was living in the paint, had a lot of floaters (and) those are pretty much layups for him, we didn’t really want that to get him started early. And I don’t think he went to the free throw line much tonight, which is also pretty big for us.
We really lost guys at the free-throw line and I think they got a lot of open 3s in transition, they got us in rotations and also a lot of second-chance points( 20).
You can point to a couple of things. You can point to turnovers. We had 25, then the free-throw line. You can’t go 5 for 13 from the foul line. Those kinds of things just take the air from you.
