When it comes to Cavaliers free throws, it is hear no evil: Windhorst Beat

‧ Don't expect Mike Brown or any player to make a big deal about free throws
after they missed 16 of them in this near loss. It's never good when a team
misses more free throws than the opponent takes. Much less seven more free
throws than the opponent takes.

別期待聽到Mike Brown或其他騎士球員對今天錯過16球罰球發表意見。不進的比對方總
罰球數還多是很糟糕的事，超過七球更是糟斃了。

Within the last week the Cavs hit rock bottom from the line, finally moving
below the Detroit Pistons into 30th in the league as they've slipped to 72
percent as a team. This is a hot race, however. The Cavs went 29-of-45
Wednesday (64 percent) and the Pistons called their raise with a re-raise,
going 13-of-22 (59 percent) in a loss to the Heat. This battle is really on.

上周騎士的罰球跌到谷底，終於超越了活塞而成為全聯盟罰球最爛的球隊。這是場激烈
的競爭，騎士今天罰球29-45，活塞則是13-22並輸給了熱火。還真是勢均力敵啊。

Anyway, you won't hear much about it. The reason is because there's a
concerted effort going on not to make it any more mental by talking about it.
The more players talk about it, they seem to believe, the worse it gets. They
are trying to avoid a syndrome if it isn't at that point already. It is too
late with Antawn Jamison, who makes weird shots look fluid but makes free
throws look like they hurt.

總之，你不會聽到太多關於罰球的評論。因為一個普遍的迷信：越是談論，越是糟糕。
他們極力避免－假如還沒陷入這情況的話。對Jamison來說已經來不及了，他的罰球似乎
已經受到影響。

In the last few possessions the Cavs put Jamison as far away from the ball as
possible, deep in the backcourt as the emergency receiver. He was to be the
last resort. The Bucks still covered him, which didn't make much sense
because his man could have been denying Mo Williams. But then again, on the
chance Jamison did have to get the ball they wanted to make sure they fouled
him instantly so maybe it was smart to shadow him.

今天在最後幾波攻防中，騎士盡量讓Jamison遠離球。公鹿仍然派人防守他，實在沒甚麼
道理，不如派人去防堵Mo接球。不過也很難說，萬一讓Jamison碰到球還是要有人能犯規，
所以守他似乎也沒有不對。

Trust that they are practicing them but it isn't working yet. Maybe they need
a shrink. Or a voodoo priest or something.

相信騎士有在努力練習，只是還沒發揮效果，也許他們需要找心理醫生，或是巫醫還是
甚麼的。
