not kings related...but worth a chuckle

But seriously. How does an NBA head coach not know that Kevin Martin’s game is to get to the foul line.

I think we can safely say that the Pistons are one of the teams without a statistics team

Or possibly even a scouting department.

I sense he was being sarcastic

He was saying that in response to the officiating…full quote for fairness:

"They got a number of calls," Kuester said, which counts as blunt talk coming from him when the subject is officiating. "We created some of the problems by ourselves. But I’m amazed that Kevin martin got 15 free throws. I never knew he was a post player."

The funny thing is

that Kuester is still clueless about the NBA no matter the irony, because post players don’t get as many FTs as penetrating guards/forwards. The only bigs who earn many FTs are face up players like Bosh and Amare..

Yep -

After Dwight Howard, these are the next seven guys on the FTA per game list: Durant, E.Gordon(!), LeBron, Westbrook, Martin, Wade, Kobe.

Tyreke should be there :'(

Yes he should

But he’s not attacking the basket as much, to my dismay. Again, I don’t know how much to attribute this to injury, but last year when he wasn’t injured, he looked much better.
