When will they learn?

When will they learn that free throws are the difference between winning and losing?

When will they learn that when you are up 3 and the other team has the ball, YOU FOUL!!!

When will they learn to shoot from the free throw line instead of dunk from the free throw line?

When will they learn that playing Jameer Nelson equals losing?

What transpired in last night was a complete clusterf*ck. It was the exact same thing that happened to Memphis in last year's national championship game. One team can't make ONE SINGLE F#CKING FREE THROW TO PUT THE GAME AWAY!!! The other team needs a 3. The team thats up 3 NEEDS TO F^CKING FOUL!!! They don't foul, 3 point bombs away, game goes to OT. Team that choked away lead is so devastated they lose in OT. In fact they get their ass kicked in OT. How many more times do we need to see it play out?!?!?! These coaches are paid MILLIONS of dollars to know this kinda sh!t.

Its not all on the coaches; the damn players should know as well. And for God's sake, make a f&cking free throw. If you suck at free throws and you can't make them, then for f^ck's sake, just bank it in. The bank is open. A very good friend of mine who will remain nameless was having free throw troubles recently until he finally took my advice and tried to bank in a couple off the glass. BANG! BANG! 2 for 2. Afterwards he said there was no way in hell he ever would have been able to make 2 consecutive free throws had it not been for the bank shot. You're welcome.

Missed free throws, not fouling when you're up 3, giving up a wide open look for 3, then getting rolled in overtime. WHEN WILL THEY LEARN?!?!?!?!? Like I said before, Lakers in 5.
