Down 2, No Time Left, 2 FT's... 

Post#1 » by pipfan » Wed Jan 21, 2015 10:28 pm

So, who on the Bulls would you want to shoot in this situation-need to make 2 of 2 for OT or game is over. I say there are tiers:

1-We are going to OT
Brooks and Dunleavy-the only two I would trust to hit both

2-We might go to OT, but probably not
Butler, Pau, Mirotic

3-I'm gonna check what else is on my DVR
Taj, Noah, Rose

4-Why the hell did Thibs have Kirk in
Kirk, Snell

Rose. No matter how much he struggles now, I can not forget how clutch he used to be, and hopefully, still is.

It's a LUXURY to have big men who cannot be fouled in the clutch.

Our bigs free throw game is better than your's.

Barring any long history of choking, I'll trust the percentages for the most part...

I feel comfortable with the first 5...
1.) Brooks
2.) Butler
3.) Rose
4.) Dunleavy
5.) Gasol

I honestly don't know.

I would just go with Brooks. Dude has no fear. Then maybe Dunleavy. Then Pau. I guess Jimmy too.

We've always been shaky in that dept. for some reason.

Brooks and Butler once he stops slumping. Rose maybe, but he's always splitting 1 out of 2

Jimmy by far. Already has a couple game winning shots this year as well as the game winning FT's with .2 seconds left at Minnesota. Rose couldn't make the FT's to seal the National Championship..

What are you talking about they won the state championship in blowout fashion. And I'll bever understand how the story has become Derrick missed two free throws at the national championship. If I didn't know better I'd believe it really happened and he wasn't 3-4 from the line.

Jimmy has also missed quite a few clutch free throws as well this year.

Gasol, no doubt about it.

That guy HAS been on the line in the playoffs and made those type of buckets.

Rose will always have the memory of bricking 2 FT's tha would have iced the NCAA title.
Instead Chalmers stepped up there and stole it for KU. This still haunts him at the FT stripe it bet. How could it not.

I'd also go with Dunlevy over Butler and Rose.
