PLAYA VISTA, Calif. – One of the following numbers isn’t like the others: 0, 3, 2, 28.
Those digits represent, in chronological order, the number of times DeAndre Jordan went to the free-throw line in each of his four games against the Spurs this season. He made 10-of-28 free throws in the final matchup, as the Spurs decided to constantly send him to the line to try to crawl back into the game.
Jordan said he expects the Spurs will probably try the hack-a-DJ strategy “a lot” once again in the playoffs.
“That’s fine, I shot a lot during the season anyway so I got a lot of practice,” Jordan joked.
