Free Throws - All Night Session
- Thread starter andoboy
- Start date
Your posts are the only terrible thing... you don't think these guys haven't spent hours shooting free throws over the years? Get a clue or better yet gon back to the football board because you're not any good at breaking down basketball.
OK idiot....you want to have each player ...that's each? so lets see 90% plus Jok...you want to do what with him?.....gym all night...ha that ought to help Cook & Pemsl get better.
So what does it feel like being a Hawkeye Hater who now cant enjoy one hell of a victory?
pretty sad....
Are you unhappy about the four dagger free throws at the end of the game? Seems to me they sealed the game.
Its a mental thing and when you play 30+min of a basketball game your exhausted.
This team is still young and the guys missing are all freshman or 1st year players. They will improve.
If your this negative, maybe stepping away from Iowa basketball is best for you. This is a roller coaster ride with this team. We are on top right now, but we very well could end up at the bottom very soon.

Nope that's what I would expect so Bohannan can sleep well Jok ok too but if you are missing both free throws or consistently can't hit the front end of a one and one you need to do something about it and quick
In the first half you're tired? Cmon this team is a bad free throw shooting team no matter what time of the game it is
I love the Hawks more than you could ever imagine e but I am not going to make excuses for them ... Take a cue from Fran young or new experienced unexperienced the expectation is that you will execute
So I see nothing short of perfection is what you want. Well if it wasn't clear before, it is now. You are a troll and to be ignored.
Thank you and yes they did come through this game and the win is big..I am old school... And staying in the gym when your tired as crap and having to hit 10 free throws will help them mentally and physically . It will pay dividends .
Did I say perfection anywhere.. Read before you criticize and tell me where 40 or 50 percent from the free throw line is expecting perfection ? I would expect 75% at a minimum...
I agree with this thread. The free throws were absolutely awful. Minus the clutch ones at the end. Shooting under 33% until the end from the line as a team is going to lose a heck of a lot of games.
Had we not pulled this out there would be no less than 10 threads over the next few days around free throws

no you are not...you are a Hater. You are what you post.
way to go Doboy...post negative threads after a great win...that's love?
Our guards can hit free throws, which is a big improvement over the last few seasons. Freshman point guard a little over 89%, Moss is at 82%, and P Jok is 91%. Ellingson can come in to help hold a lead, and he hasn't missed.
Cook has an ugly free throw; not Reggie bad but not good nonetheless. Pemsyl has a better looking shot and he might improve with experience. Baer's form is a little stiff.
Wags and Uhl, well manos de piedra.

name the number of Iowa teams in the last 50 years that have shot 75% as a team?
we had 5 guys shoot FT's tonite...Cook & Pemsl have struggled all year...tonite was one of their worse nights (2-8)...Nicholas missed both of his in 1st half.
2nd half we were 9-13 not great but it didn't not cost us the game.
Let's add, count the number of freshmen that Mr. 40 years experience would have run off for being poor free throw shooters. Stokes would have been one. A simple thing for anyone to be aware of, often times freshmen struggle at the line.
Those kind of coaching practices are simplistic. These kids are young. The bigger deal you make it the more they're going to press. It's not like defense or rebounding where you want the boys to play with greater intensity. Big men usually aren't great free throw shooters. Moss is the worst FT shooter of the ball handlers and he's over 82%.
and Im not a free throw shooting tech guy...but it seems that Cook & Pemsl don't have "bad" technique. Maybe I;m wrong...I would think they will get better results as the season goes along.
Your going to get killed on any negative posts when the team wins, even when you're correct. If we had lost than most of the posts would have been on your side. Wait until a loss next time. See the posts about the football teams after a close loss. Or even Fran can't coach the close games. (Nebraska)
