the same happened to me in last season's play-offs where I lost my first game simply because he got to shoot 30 free trows and managed to get over 20 points from it. I lost with 10 points diffrence...
He also played look inside, and I played 2-3 zone. Had to!! I had to try to stop him.
My inside defense was even higher than his inside offense, and still I had many many fouls, way more than normal.
Sadly I don't know what to do against it.
I played game 2 and 3 with fear in my hart from free-trow-losing.
They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.
