Kamar's missed free throws

[williamspo]

Did anybody else notice that Kamar stood at the line for an eternity waiting to shoot those missed free throws?

Isn't it a basic rule of coaching to get the kid off the line until the last possible moment - talk about girls or pizza or anything so he doesn't freeze at the line?

Even the NAU kids stalled forever getting position to rebound when there were no other Griz lined up. The NAU kids kept switching places, all the while Kamar gets to choke.

It seems that every major college game that comes down to the free throws, the tv commentators are speaking about whether the kid is freezing on the line waiting to shoot.

Come on, coaches.

While I am still trying to come to grips that someone is honestly and sincerely blaming the coaches for Kamar's missed free throws, I am remined of one thing..................There are a lot of stupid people in this world. I can't believe it. I thought I had heard it all, but this was a new one! Wow.

Maybe it wasn't a choke job. Maybe he just plain missed them. I think that's something worth considering. It could have been that his shots just didn't fall, and there's nothing more to it.

The first shot was halfway down... It just didn't fall.

For an interesting prospective check out the NAU newspaper article on the game. As they say, everything went NAU's way in the final minutes.
