Free throws and rebounds!

Im not saying we should be in the final four, but this is our chance to join the blue bloods and if we can’t keep this momentum going it will be hard to get it back.
 
Missing a critical free throw in a crunch situation should elicit some sort of reaction indicating dismay - head lowered or slightly shaken with perhaps a slight hand gesture indicating frustration. But definitely no laughing or obvious smirks. If a second free throw is coming, and after the above reactions of dismay, stepping back from the line and perhaps following through with a couple of free throw shooting motions is in order.
Thank you. This helpful. Hope she and others read what is appropriate and expected

 
Everybody must have missed all those sold out, nationally televised games Lucy played last year. Right--there weren't any. It's a new pressure, and wanting to be a leader makes it that much harder.

Imagine you get the halftime chance to make a free throw to win a car. You play in a rec-league so this is going to be easy, right? Your wife is behind you. She really really needs a new car. Your son pipes up, "You got this, Dad." Everyone is cheering for you!

What's your reaction when you throw up an airball?
 
I don’t know how much coaching can change this season’s outcome. I hope things come together and we see some successes in the rest of the season, but my question is, how much does Jensen figure out before next year starts? Assuming (hoping) all the good/great players and recruits stay, who starts day one? What offensive/defensive adjustments are made to exploit the teams strengths and weaknesses?

That said, while this year isn’t going as well as I hoped, it looks kinda like I expected except we’re not winning the winnable games. I thought we would be solid at home and pick up someupsets on the road.
