Between the Lines

Last night during the Magic/Warrriors game Dwight Howard went to the free throw line 39 times. Yes, you heard me…39 times! The Warriors were shorthanded and instead of playing Howard straight up they decided to foul him and send him to the line. I’m a fan of Warriors head coach Mark Jackson I think he’s going to make a great head coach, and help the Warriors go to the next level, but this was not a good decision. Don’t bail him [Howard] out by sending him to the line. Yes, he had 45 points, but 21 of those points came from the stripe. Jackson should have allowed his team to play Howard straight up because they were in the game, even started the game on a 9 nothing run. Next time don’t bail Howard out make him earn his points. Bottom line. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T
