The NBA Playoffs are great. It separates the great teams from the good teams. This is where a team's strengths are vital and weaknesses are exposed.
What does that mean for Los Angeles Clippers center, DeAndre Jordan? It's not about post moves or lack of lobs, but his free throws.
Through four games of the series between the Clippers and Portland Trail Blazers, Jordan has taken 34 free-throw attempts – and he has only managed to make 12 of them.
Last night, Jordan continued his woes as he managed to air ball two consecutive free throws, which is where his obvious weakness lies.

The form seemed good, he looked confident, but the pressure was apparently too much to hit the rim… or anything else.
With Chris Paul breaking his hand last night and Blake Griffin getting hurt as well, it's going to be an uphill battle for the Clippers for the rest of the playoffs, let alone the rest of this series, which is now tied at two games apiece.
