The Bulls Are So Lucky

Shaquille O'Neal in 2003:

I don’t care about my [free throw shooting] percentages. I keep telling everyone
that I make them when they count.

Shaq's career FT% -- 52.5%
Shaq's 2007 round one FT% -- 33.3% (including 0 for 9 in the elimination game)

It's easy to see who deserves all of the blame for the Heat's series loss to the Chicago Bulls - Shaq's teammates. They should have been fully aware that free throws don't count until the NBA Finals. Shaq can't be bothered to make even his career percentage of free throws in a meaningless first round playoff series. I know that. You know that. Now why in the fuck didn't D-Wade, Posey, and Fatoine Walker know that, too? Oh well, there's always next year, Heat fans.
