Holmes the clutch FT shooter?

Holmes, the man you'd want shooting free throws for you if your life depended on it!!!

This should be interesting discussion

(Mod: Context for those unaware, the line is roughly as was written in Boti's match report from the Perth-Adelaide game. Holmes hit 2/2 free throws at a crucial point of the game.)

Shooting it exceptionally well this year, but a career 77% Free Throw shooter.
Thought Boti must have been taking the piss when I read it too, maybe the heats just got to him ...

Holmes is shooting 91% for the season.

I think what Boti could be referring to is that Holmes is good clutch performer. He has made some clutch shots in ABA games

Boti's only been back for a few days and he has people talking about his report, just as many journalists want

22/24 from the stripe this season and not always one to let nerves get the better of him.

Jacob's % from the foul line has always been very good,
which is interesting because his field percentages have always varied a lot.

I don't want to rain on the Holmes parade but 24 shots in 18 games is just over 1 per game and so that doesn't really give a realistic foul shot percentage.

I still think he has been a consistently good foul shooter throughout his career however if he is so good at shooting them and is a smart basketballer then he should try to get to the line more often otherwise he is disadvantage us in offense.

Great game by him on the weekend and I hope it continues.
