bigbluepride35 Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 Yeah kid had a phenomenal season too. I think next year he makes those. He's only a freshman. Tough way to lose a game. In fact the kids 10-11 year old team I coach lost yesterday partly thanks to missed free throws. Not quite as dramatic with them at the end but yeah it sucks no matter what level. :no: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted March 12, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 12, 2005 what a painful thing to watch. you really have to feel for the guy. a trip to the big dance on the line. a freshman with the ball, and the hoop, and one goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L3thal Veteran Posted March 13, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 13, 2005 The thing is that the free throws were all close to going in. They bounced around the rim at least two times but wouldn't go in :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattmatik Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 They were saying after the game that after he made the first one, he gestured to Calipari and to the bench that it was over, that he was going to make the other 2. I have no sympathy for someone who acts like that. The first free throw didn't even tie the game, how are you going to start celebrating like that? Hopefully, John Calipari uses this as a lesson for him and Washington uses this as motivation to work on the basics of the game (and quit showboating...I'm so sick of that becoming the "norm" in basketball).
