re: On Zion NOT getting to the line as often as we think he should...I think

Free throws are down substantially (as well as points per game) since the All-Star break. The refs are eating the whistle on drives more. Frankly, I don’t love this era of basketball. Where is the defense? So many advantages have been provided offense that it’s evolved the game (with the insane amount of 3-point shooting) to a place viewership is down. PPG went from basically low/mid 90’s per team per game to 115+ per team per game. It’s down about 5 ppg since the all star break.
