Over the last four games of the season, Vipers opponents shot 42 more free throws (10.5 per game). The Vipers went 1-3 in the span, their worst stretch of the season.
Direct correlation? Maybe, but not necessarily.
Today, Reno went 36-for-53 from the line while the Vipers were 20-for-29. The Vipers won 110-94.
Deja Vu all over again?
On December 21 the Vipers experienced their biggest free throw differential of the regular season as they were out done in makes by 18 and attempts by 23. The opponent? Reno (23-for-31 while the Vipers were 5-for-8). The result? The Vipers won 103-95.
The Vipers now get two chances to close out the 2010 NBA Development League Quarterfinals at home, but they hope they'll only need one. The first chance? Monday, 8:00 p.m., State Farm Arena in front of a LIVE national audience on VERSUS.
The Vipers are 3-0 on VERSUS this season, including a record-breaking 109-76 win over... you guessed it... Reno... on February 6.
