    I think he just misspoke. I'm sure he meant the latter

    immediately thought of an article from a few months ago when I read this post.

    this image accompanied the article:

    if it's genuine, then perhaps fans underestimate the pressure and rhythm of practice shots vs game shots.

    One of the Lakers assistants was talking about how Howard hits 82% in practices...and that it's a mental thing with him in games. Howard even said its a mental thing for him.

    If he can get that percentage to 65% in games, that would be unreal.

    Howard has shot 60% before. I think it was 2 or 3 seasons ago. He has the potential to do it for sure.

    playing at the speed they do against the physical athletes out there its amazing how a big man can shoot over 70% in game. It's so weird how a guy like Kevin Durant who isn't much smaller can be the best in the NBA at free throws.

    This video was hilarious. Dwight agreeing to do this was a little crazy.

    I'm pretty sure he actually said "You know something I don't?"
