“Basketball Forever”? More like LeBron is our Daddy lol

Free throw differential is one of the most random stats in the NBA

hopefully differential gets bigger love it when other fans hate us

Strange, I thought Taurean Prince by himself would’ve evened this out a lot.

What about just this year? Combining years is an absolute garbage stat.

No matter how much we explain the reason for the FT discrepancy, they never get it. It’s like arguing politics. They’re gonna believe what they want to believe.

All context and intelligence is thrown away when talking about whatever team Lebron is on. It’s actually crazy what people say and truly believe when looking at hand picked stats with no context whatsoever for a narrative. Basketball discourse has gotten worse and worse every year bc people need to go at Bron any way possible because he has been this good for so long.

Dumb narrative , especially considering we try to attack the paint more then other teams and how Lbj gets multiple no calls a game driving to the rim
noh-seung-joon
Don’t take the bait, we made MITWestbrook famous like that

So I guess if they’re legitimate calls, it doesn’t matter because they get more FTs already. Got it.

Didn’t we already go over this last season? I thought someone made a statistical analysis of this in /r/nba and discovered nothing was weird about it.

The fact most basketball fans don’t realize that FTAs being even is the more rigged stat is mind boggling.
That’s the same as saying the teams must be racist since there are usually only one or two white guys per team.
We need equal representation now!

They also attempt 3’s at a rate that puts them at the bottom of the league. They are a team that attacks the basket.
less-ismore
Don’t they also know we can’t shoot for shit? Like ever? We have stars, can’t shoot & are constantly at the rim playing with physicality. Unbelievable

“This and last season” shut the fuck up

I wonder if that has any relation to our getting most of our points in the paint. Nothing like ignoring context for an ignorant gotcha. I expect this to be the top post in r/nba.

Zero context LOL
How dare a primarily inside scoring team get more FT attempts. /s
deathinmidjuly
We’ve constantly been one of the bottom 3pt shooting teams and have to get a lot of points driving.
A lot of people believe FT should be even for both teams regardless of play style
ToraLoco
so is there a pool of fouls to be handed out? and only the Lakers are meeting the quota?
should there be equal number of fouls for each side no matter what?
