Thankfully la tech can't hit 3s (hopefully didn't just jinx it).

Free throw shooting... oof.

 

[MineroFanatico]

First one to 43 wins the game?

 

[MineroFanatico]

Carlitos Lemus is a liability to say the least…..

Nice reverse psychology. This is the best he’s looked offensively speaking.

He read the board at halftime and was like **** that Bigwood guy, I’m a make a few plays in the second half.

 

[Lil_Train]

Man I hate it when D1 players can't make freethrows. Guards especially.

 

[MinerManiac]

If the CIA ever needs to torture a terrorist just show them video of the Miners shooting free throws

That shit Almost cost me a few bucks earlier, Sam Houston missed like five or six in an row in the last 90 seconds against Texas State today.

 

[Roy_Bigwood_05]

Last five mins of every game Golding should just run ISO or PnR with McKinney and let him cook or get to the FT line, best scoring option needs to have the ball from here on out.

 

[MinerManiac]

Anyone know where you can purchase an offense? The Miners are in desperate need of one

Damnit black Friday already passed

 

[MinerManiac]

If I'm LA Tech I start playing maul-a-Miner (hey, you can't call it hack-a-Shaq). Their odds of us not making enough free throws is pretty high.

You would think we would be a little better at home, but that's not the case with these guys. Embarrassing really.

And there you go, fouling Kalu on the rebound. Smart.

If utep does have leads like this, I wouldn't be surprised if we see it everytime from here on. This team just can't shoot free throws.

 

[FeralFelidae]

This lead isn't safe if they can't hit free throws.

 

[Lil_Train]

Pretty much anyone out there will work for LaTech.

 

[FeralFelidae]

First to 60 wins!

 

[MineroFanatico]

We’re on the verge of giving this thing away.

 

[TxRdKiller]

WTG, Miners. Go ahead. Give them the fvcking game.

 

[FeralFelidae]

If Tech hits both of these, they won't even need to foul (although they probably should anyway).

 

[MineroFanatico]

Hardy is the only one I feel half way safe shooting FTs and he fouled out. Jeez!

 

[MineroFanatico]

Quit ****ing fouling. ****ing Givance!!

 

[MinerManiac]

Don't foul! Don't give them a chance to score with the click stopped!

 

[Roy_Bigwood_05]

God damn

 

[develman]

We deserve to lose.

 

[SAMINERGIRL]

Does either team want to win?? This last minute has been atrocious!

 

[MinerManiac]

It should have been a comfortable win, instead we will escape by the skin of our teeth. How do we suck so bad from the line? How many games are we going to lose because of it?

Amazingly, we haven't lost any games because of it yet.

Just got back from a Xmas party and missed the game.

20 & 18 TO’s?! Yikes! Both teams were sloppy, obviously. FT % is the norm until March. You can’t fix much of it in-season.

However, holding LT to 30% from the field is a good thing. 44 for UTEP is not great but no bad, either.

Wait, what?!? Hitting 15 of 37 free throws for 40% is NOT the norm. And it NEEDS to be fixed in-season. What should have been a comfortable win, basically came down to the wire. It was atrocious. I’ve never really seen a whole team self destruct from the line like that before.

Are you saying these guys can't improve their atrocious FT shooting? Most of these guys have shot way better at their last stops. Lack of discipline, even me (and I'm no Fili) can make 7 out of 10. It was really sloppy BTW.

 

[axingfools1]

Worst free throw shooting I've seen in my life. My 9 yr old daughter said she could do better. Golding said they shot 90% in practice yesterday 🤣🤣

 

[Voice of the Mosquito]

Sloppy, perhaps what I saw was two teams using all their energy on the defensive end and leaving little left for offense. Miners really don't have a guy that can go for 15 every night out or get their own shot and they tend to overpass IMO. La Tech plays good D as well so just wan't much to be had scoring wise. Really physical game.

 

[picks up]

Is this the worst free throw shooting performance in UTEP history? We were lucky that La Tech didn't make all their free throws at the end.

I didn't expect this game to be a win so I'm happy despite the free throws.

 

[Dmanminer]

What the hell, take the win and burn the film.

 

[miner1liner]

Maybe Golding should take the entire team to a hypnotist who can plant "making free throws" into their noggins. I'll bet my grandmother could make better than 40%.
We would have scored 70 and won this game by 15 if we'd made 25 of 37 which is a mere 67%.
It's ridiculous

Maybe it's because the DHC floor and rim share the same orange.

Yes, I am saying the FT % is maybe going to get slightly better. Second, to dovetail that the crappy FT performance woes will continue. My God folks, FT shooting is mechanics and psychological. Golding has two options, devote more precious practice time or make players come in on their own time and work on it. He can do both; hope springs eternal.
