If you get a wide open shot at the free throw line, you should take it even
if you are Bruce Bowen who shoots 40% from the line. It isn't a dumb play to
pass it out to another open guy but why waste a high percentage two point
attempt (straight on) versus a lower percentage three (plus, point guards got
to know who they are passing to, who's hot and who isn't). I am no where near
upset about it because Bremer shows good court awareness during other times
during the game so I know he will figure it out. It is only his second game
for crying out loud....
