    Number of series with 12+ FTA: 3
    Number of series with 14+ FTA: 2

    Wade is D-Whistle when Kobe has more series shooting 12+ FT's and 14+ FT's and has shot 96 Free Throws in a 6 Game series

    Wade is D-Whistle when Bron has x4 the amount of 10+ FTA series, x2 the amount of series shooting 12+ FT's, and doubled the number of series shooting 14+ FT's

    You know there's a difference from legitimate and illegitimate free throws, right?

    It's always been kind of stupid. LeBron and Wade especially make a living driving to the paint and getting contact. It shouldn't be a surprise that they go to the free throw line a lot.

    So Wade's Free Throws are illegitimate but Bron & Kobe's are legitimate?

    Agreed but I made this thread because Kobe & Bron Stans constantly bash Wade for Free Throws when their own favorite players are getting as much Free Throws.

    Before this Finals, James was only avg. 6FTA per game in the Finals.

    Wade's first Finals (and only 3rd year in the league) avg 16FTA (96 total) for a 6 game series. That's crazy numbers for a non-big in the Finals

    Are we referring to average FTA for the series?

    Of course Kobe and Lebron are going to have more if you add up totals.

    Kobe and Lebron were actually durable and played longer throughout the playoffs while Wade was always hurt

    Wade got the "D-Whistle" moniker because his free-throw rate numbers early in his career were ****ing ridiculous.

    Look at this shit:

    2005: .578 FTR
    2006: .568 FTR
    2007: .556 FTR

    It's clear he was benefiting immensely from the hand-checking rules.

    Kobe's career high was .452 and that came in 03-04 aka the best defensive season of the best defensive era ever.

    LeBron doesn't have a single season that comes close to those FTR rates either.

    And neither have been in a series where they got the type of bullshit calls Wade got in 2006.
