They're practicing free throws!?!?!?!?

Love the coverage, fantastically written by MattyV....wait a minute....wasn't that name of a user on here? Not the same guy is it?

Love the sound of the practice. Sounds like Wojo has them working towards a good direction.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Wait 2-2 on three pointers? Let's say derrick starts then Ners is gonna $hit himself then derrick hits a 3 or two then Ners is gonna have a damn stroke.

If Derrick starts burying 3's in games I'm gunna start throwing pigs off of roofs.

Love this, of course his own coach did this as well...so did Wooden and others.



Buzz Williams didn't believe in setting aside practice time for free throws. Wojciechowski doesn't think the team can afford not to. "We need everything we can get in terms of scoring," he said. "If we're getting to the free-throw line we have to convert those at a high rate. Everything's important. We're a team that's got to take advantage of every opportunity to score and make the most of it."

It really is great to have a reporter that actually produces some content once in a while.  Well done.

I think he has offered more quality pieces before the first game than Mike Hunt did all of last year.

Hunt was good at the old-school, longform pieces.  This guy is really good at the more regular tidbits that drive eyeballs to your site on a more regular basis.  Printed newspapers are dying, but quality content is more important than ever.

Did all this run in the paper? If so, that's almost Packers coverage from the JS. Excellent reporting job.

Neither Ners nor anyone else was cheering against Derrick. I think Ners, like a lot of others, would be very happy to see Derrick improve his willingness and ability to shoot improve to the point that he can at least hold defenses honest.
