Free throws.

Free throws.

Yes they were - again. It looked like KO directed guards to take ball to hoop, draw fouls, get in bonus and double bonus - we were in bonus around 9:50 mark in second half.

Free throws.

That stat about our pressure FTs in last 5 minutes also ignores that we missed a couple that didn't matter. Last 10 seconds, up by 8 or so. Maybe Boat against St Joes and Giff against Nova or ISU.

That is how you win games and championships

60 for 70 in the east

I've said this earlier- don't overlook how KO has made this team an unbelievably good FT team. And, this is another win because they can hit them all game game long.

The statistics on our FTs in this tournament must be setting some type of tournament record. When we get to the line, we win at the line.

We owe Steve Nash all the credit. Or at least most of it.

Apparently they need to make 17 FT's in a minute or they run, in practice. They'll be playing/scrimmaging and then...boom...into FT drills. Get them to not think about it, just do it until it becomes muscle memory. When you're tired and can still hit them helps at the end of games.

We owe it to Glenn Miller for finding and pushing it. That's good coaching right there. He kind of gets ignored on here, but that guys money.

And for all those interested in how we got so good at shooting them...

I read this too, before Michigan. I am amazed at how his random youtube find has made this team into free throw dominators.
