I was specifically thinking of Andrew DeClerq. I was hoping for Greg Kite... oh well... John Amaechi's "friends" say he was a big guy. I've always had a feeling that Dwight was eventually going to be a good free throw shooter. The form and the work habits are already in place, its all mental at this point. Despite the good streak he is on now, I don't think his shooting woes are over for this season. Its probably something that will gradually improve over the next few seasons. I wouldn't be surprised if he shoots around 68% next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Predicting that you will manhandled in the post is not a difficult task when it comes to being Dwight Howard. At the end of the day, I think Superman has excepted that free throw shots are going to be there every game whether he likes it or not. I think the referees took notice also after they didn't give Dwight any calls during the second half of the game last night. Sure don't want our center man, Dwight Howard, following the footsteps of Shaqquile O'Neal at the free throw line. I hope this thread doesn't jinx him. I knew it!!!

Mooooooooooves 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2008 Honestly, this is nothing I'm too concerned about. Dwight's a hard worker and his FTs will improve. I'm more concerned about him missing the rim entirely on banks (what little he does take in games) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
