Let me start this out by saying I have made a lot of money off of the Lakers this year. In fact they are one of the teams that I've used to keep my head above water. I would not call myself a fan of them, I just like to wager for and against them in certain spots. I mention this so as others will not think that I am bitter towards the subject because I really am not. The question I am posing is this....
Aren't the majority of Shaq's free throw shots Illegal?
As Shaq shoots a free throw, his body carries him to step across the free throw line and on to the floor before the ball ever reaches and touches the rim or the backboard. Does anyone else see this and is this still supposed to be Illegal resulting in loss of shot and no point given if the basket is made?
If so, I guess it's fair to say the ref's are giving Shaq different treatment because of his past history of poor free throw shooting.
Any comments or replies are appreciated.
