exodus Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 This year the Hawks have taken 112 more foul shots than their opponents and are shooting 77.4%, 8th in the league. That is pretty good for such a young team. JJ and Smith have been shooting better so far. Not having Speedy in the lineup has certainly helped. While the half court offense has been a mixed bag they have been doing a good job at the line and that is something that can be done consistently night in and night out.

dalamchops Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 hawks are 5th in FTA per game. 3rd in FTM per game. 7th in Steals, and 6th in blocks. 12th in Turnovers and 9th in forcing turnovers. Those are our recipes for winning games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exodus Posted December 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Quote: hawks are 5th in FTA per game. 3rd in FTM per game . Only one team in the league makes more fts than the Hawks. That is Denver and they make only .2 more per game. click Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalamchops Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 to be mathematical correct. Mav's made 670 FT in 30 games, that's 22.3333333333. Hawks have made 601 FT in 27 games, which turns out to be 22.259259259259259 per game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is pretty good for such a young team. Last year we were a jump shooting team that couldn't shoot. Now, instead of forced bricks, we are getting points at the line. I bet if you check Chicago's numbers, they had probably shot a lot more free throws at this time last year. Look at them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
