Okay, I am sick to death of it. Why don't the Cavs hire one of their greatest, Mark Price, to come in and give a FT shooting clinic? WTF is wrong with these guys??

I totally agree. I was watching a 60 minutes show the other night how the Mavericks contract out a free throw shooting specialist who analyzes and works with every player. The Cavs certainly need some kind of help in that department. They've regressed (in more areas than FT shooting) from last year, and that's hard to do.

This was discussed on WTAM last nite after the game. How cool is it that it comes in crystal clear at night here in Minneapolis. Anyhow, I kind of agree but I think at this point it is a mental thing that each player needs to focus on with whichever coach they feel comfortable. Unfortunately I dont think Mark Price would make too much a difference coming in with 25 or so games left.

I was reading it in an article last week on Cleveland.com. Basically, it said that they have talked to Price about it however they don't want to bring him in this season to do it. For some reason, they feel it is better to let the guys play it out this season and not distract them at practice with learning to take free throws and would rather wait until the offseason to address the problem

That is a GREAT idea. Not like they will need to make their FTs in the playoffs or anything.

Why wasn't this addressed last season? One of the critical free throw sloppers this year (Mr. James) will be tied up with the Dream Team or whatever the heck they call it now.

Lebron shooting free throws makes me cringe. How can you be so good and be so shaqlike at the free thro line.

He isn't concentrating or something, his shot looks good. I just don't get this teams struggle with free throws this year.
