Not sure if this has been posted before. Wes leads the nation in Free Throws Made.

It's too bad he can never finish his lay-ups...we definitely would have had 100+ if he and the rest of the guys hadn't missed half of the bunnies that they did.

But I'm not taking anyway from his FT game...it is sick, indeed.  I just wish we could get more and 1's, because I definitely dig that little cheer the cheerleaders do after we make an "and 1".

Y'all know...the little...Hey, and then swish...thing...muwarrior87 knows what I'm talking about, haha, he does it along with them.

The "score it" is quite fun. We had to get on the band after they didn't do it the first game of the season.  Ever since, it's been utilized nicely.

Damn, 42.85% of Wes's points come from the free throw line.  Thats pretty impressive for someone scoring 22 a game

if someone would have told me that wes matthews would average anywhere around 20 ppg this season, I would have said we are a legitimate final 4 threat

whats going on around here??  :)

Wasn't there a thread before the season about how Matthews would have to average 20+ to get his career scoring numbers up near James and McNeal?  Maybe the Big 3+1 decided they would help him reach that goal.
