OK Seriously, What The Hell Is Going On

This can’t be real. I refuse to believe that someone as talented as Markelle Fultz really shoots FTs like this. Honestly this isn’t even a troll blog coming from a Celtics fan. I mean what is going on? How can it still be THIS broken? I feel like we need answers about what the hell is going on in Philadelphia. How is it possible to be so ruined when you’ve basically never played? At this point it’s the Charles Barkley golf swing of the NBA. This has to be 100% mental for Fultz at this point and that sucks. You can’t exactly have the yips shooting the ball, but that’s what I feel this is. He mentally has a block when it comes to FT shooting/overall shooting.

And to think, he’s about to have Jimmy Butler as a teammate. I’m sure that will go over well, no issues to possibly worry about I’m sure. At this point I just want Fultz to figure it out because this can’t be healthy to have to deal with. If anything he’s probably freaking out more, which in turn is making him struggle even more. The whole thing is just so bizarre. How many times in NBA history has there been a #1 pick that legit forgot how to shoot? A double clutch on a FT is not something I ever thought I’d see, and if I’m a Sixers fan I need answers so whoever else they bring in doesn’t get exposed to the same stuff that Fultz has.

I’m rooting for the kid, but holy shit this is still so broken
