Rick Barry naturally had lots to say when I asked him if he’d like the opportunity to try to work with Ben Simmons on his wayward free-throw shooting. Barry is under no illusions: He knows it will never happen. Shaquille O’Neal once famously said that he would rather shoot zero percent from the line than adopt Barry’s underhanded form. Wilt Chamberlain likewise admitted years earlier that, after shooting 28-for-32 on free throws underhanded in assembling his legendary 100-point game in 1962, he felt like a “sissy” despite the success and could not allow his macho image to be sullied by “granny”-style shooting.
